    Looks good, Randy. How is it attached to the hangers? Is it welded or bolted on?

    It’s bolted on, two 1/2” bolts on each side. Or in my case two 3/8” bolts because my I drilled my holes a little too close together lol

    Jeff is a pretty stand up guy. Got to meet him thru a friend and picked up his compressor mount and a Tpam after black friday. I did have to make some spacers because he makes them for factory stereo's and my Scosche dash kit has a slightly different profile on the top then the factory. ended up putting taping a wireless charging pad on my phone mount in order to make things even easier!

    You have to remove everything in the middle and pry up the right side of the gauge cluster.
