Quick update, tonight I replaced the chome panhead setscrews with black ones to blend in better with the CF vinyl. I ran the fuel lines and wired in
the digidash, cut the Ali composite and shaped the tunnel sides. Although I still need to final shape the edging and put the edging trim on but I
can't until the CF vinyl arrived from the bay later this week. Finally I fitted the zorst back having repacked it and swagged the joints a
little to ake it a better fit.
Hopefully tomorrow evening I will wire in the rest of the guages in and then I can bolt the dash in place and start finishing off the long list of
little assembly jobs.
cheers........ Neil

Neil,
Your note by your username put me in mind of a joke by the US comedian Steven Wright.
Whenever I pick up someone hitchhiking, I always like to wait for a few minutes before I say anything to them. Then I say, "put your seatbelt
on----I want to try something I saw in a cartoon, but I'm pretty sure I can pull it off." :
