    I’ve decided it is just a whole lot of tinkering.

    Looks like a nice set of tools where did you find those at? Are they rounded hex?

    Just on Amazon. They were just the basic tools needed recommended by the TW member doing the other Taco build. Hex, nut drive, Phillips and flat. I also have got the chassis rack. Dont know if its needed? Even gonna try to match the lighting on my retros and ultimate mirrors. Ain't gonna be easy.
