    I've been messing with it for about an hour now. I don't think it's going to fit.The ring is just slightly too big and pops the other side out whenever I work it around

    The dash trim or the chrome delete?

    I'm only asking because I have the Inferno trim, but I want to see how close @MESO's red color matches the OEM dash color.

    I like the start button ring in red. I think all of it being red would be too much... nicely done.

    @MESO have you ever thought of eliminating the shifter boot? Design a flat plate that has the shifter route cut out. This would allow aftermarket shift knobs that wouldn't rely on the boot holder.

    Everyone can weigh in on the "interest". Feel free to say it's a stupid idea. I'm not completely sold on the idea. Execution would be the key.

    The 4x4 switch was finicky... not hard. Could have used an extra set of hands. One side would snap back together when I tried to unclip the other side.

    I don't know if I "unclipped" the start ring or just broke it apart.

    Assembly was mindless.

    I am trying a small dab of super glue and a clamp to see if that works keeping it flush. I don't plan on changing it out ever again so that might do just fine for me.
