Here are the finished pictures. I just finished two more kits and redid mine with some of the stuff I recently figured out so that it works even better. Everything is completely OEM now. I will add pictures in the car tomorrow so you can all see everything works. If wish I could do a time lapse video of me making these things. I can't tell you how long and tedious it is.

To do the manual and auto climate controls is a bit different from each other. For those reasons I'll do the manual climate controls for 600 and the auto climate controls for 800. Local shops charge 1000+ (our local shop would bill 1500 + supplies). Turn around time is 3 weeks +/- 1 week.

Here is the final product.



Alright. I got time to throw it in the car. My only issue with my kit is that I have the wrong three buttons in my car so the button that has the defrost symbol is really A/C and the button that has A/C symbol is really the defrost button. I broke it a long time ago and someone hooked me up with this one but the buttons were reversed. Everything works fine so it doesn't bother me. I was going to paint over them but didn't care enough.



Here is a video showing that everything functions:

NICE! Pricey, but for a good reason! Looks quality. Hopefully you'll keep this available for a while. I'm saving this for later use.

Thanks. I will be going out and installing it in about 2 hours. Videos and pics to come. I tried to reserve the second post but it kept adding it to my first. Oh well. I'll add it to the first post by noon if I can find the time.

Looks pretty clean. Can you snap another picture with the cupholder etc in place to see how stock it looks next to the stock pieces?

Nice... but I've asked this before when you debuted your work in progress and you never responded so I'll kindly ask it again, where did you relocate the emergency flasher button?

It's the one in the yellow square in this pic:

I wont have the cupholders and stuff in for a while. Im fiberglassing the ashtray area to mount my meth controller and some switches.

As for the hazards...I can put them anywhere...mine is just a small toggle now under the dash.
