Yeah that needs to be tightened up a bit. What seats did you use? Got any pictures of the dash in progress or not started yet?

The seats are from a Honda S2000. The covers are from Clazzio

Here is the dash

Some real stupid questions. . . . your door panels, I see the release lever moved down to the arm rest, how'd you accomplish that? next, where's the window crank? Last, what ya gonna do with your old gauges? happen to need a set.

The stuff to move the door handle comes with the door panels from Mustangs to Fear. It was super easy to do. Just undo the three bolts, , screw in their adapter plate, hook up the new arm they send. Seriously took about fifteen minutes per side.

The window crank went away in favor of power windows (I used a $68 dollar kit from Amazon and it works surprisingly well).

The old gauges are on my shelf. I had planned to clean them up and sell them. if you are interested in them as-is, shoot me a PM, I'll give you a good deal on them.

I used to be the same way, but since I've been working to help develop some of these parts (CAD work and 3D printing prototypes), I really understand what goes into making them, and all the time and cost involved to get the quality right, and now I understand why the price points are where they are.

I can agree it is not for everyone, but U don't find it absurd anymore.
