#100853, "Just some things i've been working on..."
Mar-30-08 01:32 PM by Slimyjr.



          

Here's some pics of panels i made to take the place of vents and HVAC controls. Also theres a pic of a led panel i made. Some of them dont light up so well cause of e-bay led's but ill fix that soon.











the last pic is of the placement of led's so you guys know where they are for the ones that dont light up.

Comment: good or bad, all are welcome.

I think the front dash switches and HVAC panel you made looks real clean and the black matches very nicely.

However, dont take it to the heart, but the LED's in the quarter panel, and around the speaker just look dumb dude.

I also think the switches look great. Will you be sharing how you did it?

I agree with the switches looking ace.

How long did it take you to pull all the hvac stuff out?

Clean.


However, the clean dash is disrupted by the led's in the back seat. I dont like those at all...

thanks for the comments guys. Im thinking about ditching the leds cause they are a pain in the ass to deal with. But as for the panels i used plexiglass. What i did was gut the panel that was originally there except for the outside edges and the places where the clips were. then i simply superglued the plexiglass which i cut and sanded to shape, on. Very simple to do. ill post some pics up of the back of the panels later. As for taking out the hvac, it wasnt hard at all. Just unplug the connectors and i cut the steel lines. I dont have any heat or airconditioning in my car so it was very simple.

The dash looks great. Not sure about the LED's though. the ones by the door (don't like those) but the ones by the speaker.. if you could have it set to that they are underneath the mesh cover and not outlining it, it wouldn't look too bad. that's just if you are set with having the lights back there.

dash looks pretty but those led's are a disaster .The looks as well as the led wiring are pretty bad.

the switches are really nice, but for god sake hide them, unless you plan to install wings and turn your car into a plane, and then that might actually make them relevant.

the leds... seriously? how in the hell are you supposed to drive drunk with all those lights blinking in your face?
