Anything is possiable but you can’t recess it without a ton of work which wouldn’t be too valuable (effort vs output)

It mounts with a built in recess but is not flush..

I used one of these. He has them for the louvers too. Nice custom look.

Thanks Don that would have been an option. For me that’s a step where the juice wouldn’t justify the squeeze...
Their are details and then their are details .. I hyper focus on the functional differences or things I can do myself

Off topic but I was in a shop the other day, super cool nice guy in his 70’s came in chatting up the guys then left. He just finished a car at a different shop with complete custom everything no detail overlooked .. spent 650k on the build ... car got 150k at auction a year later. Another PT car I know built locally to me which is a feature car on Camario performers ... customer dropped 260k on the build brought just over 6 figures at auction ... guess my point is some of these little details when getting done by a shop really add up and don’t add value

I’m retired and do my own work so stuff like this doesn’t cost much and I enjoy it.
