    Dash time!

    The last big bit of getting the interior all up to par was the dash, which I did by myself yesterday. It wasn't too hard, just time consuming.

    The patient;


    The donor;


    Diggin in;


    Organization, it's important;


    2.5 hours gets me here:


    Swapping the VIN;


    "New" dash in;


    Done!


    I'm definitely not itching to do this again any time soon, and some help would have been nice once or twice, but fuck it, it's over with. Now on to more fun stuff, like making the outside look as good as the inside, and getting some mechanical woes taken care of to keep it on DD duty.

    Big thanks to Clarkkey594 for the hookup on the dash!

        Give yourself the better part of an afternoon. It was about 2-2.5 hours to get it out, about the same to the the new one back in.

                                Fabbed aluminum brackets for the airdam, because I'm sick of breaking the plastic ones;



                                Mounted up;



                                And a side project going on in the workspace, a single round swap on my buddies '84 Gti;
