    Without, because the dash is already recessed at the bottom because of that sun shade up top the dash?

    I had to google image the dash, I thought the top edge stuck out further.

    But yeah those sun shades would easily be too much.

    I'm doing well; welding is fun and next week we get to do some technical stuff.

    Other than that, nothing new as we wait anxiously for the house.

    How about yourself?

    Still doing tours?

    What's new in life?

    Curious about the Z too :anonymous:

    I know Stephanie talked about going up there one of these days, hell we're going and staying at Morro Bay for a few days camping.

    Nice!

    They have me working in the office since it’s the slow season. I go back to doing tours during the holidays and the summer. Nothing new otherwise, just hanging in there haha.

    As for the z…. :anonymous:

    Any idea what to look for? I haven't had a chance to take a real look yet.

    She doesn't feel safe commuting as is or with a bumper/headlight slap and is looking at new cars. I, of course, am intrigued by the shitboxery at my fingertips

    That’s true. I think I’ll keep it off. It’s kind of redundant.

    These fit 2” gauges. If you have a use for them, they’re all yours if the owner don’t want them.

    Also these gauges look freaking fantastic. Not bad for cheap GlowShift gauges.

    I installed the two right gauges in the factory A/C holes (which the intended car doesn’t have, this is a junkyard bezel) and drilled new holes on the left side. The Trans Am had four gauge holes, but it’s a different non-wood grain finish.

    Had to special order a 2-1/16” hole bit to cut the gauge holes. Hard size to find.

    Cleaned up the wiring too. I added Metripack connectors to them.
