In the makeshift booth... Just trying to keep all the sanding dust from coating every inch of the shop.

Speaker mounts double as supports for the rear deck panel.

Had some help from Mark at CarAudioFabrication, spec'ing out the sound system components. My only hard requirement was the Rockford Fosgate PM3 head unit. Mark is a great resource and helped with the rest. Here are rear speakers, Focal PC165FE's.

Built some covers to keep the speakers protected from the bottom (trunk)
Just some quick molds for some removable fiberglass boxes.

That is so cool. I love watching Mark's YouTube videos; always learn a lot from him.

Great work on your car!!

Hi Ty. Thanks. They are Lithonia 4' LED. LBL4-LP840. With the Surface Wraparound lens with the opaque liner removed. Work great. Have them throughout my shop. These are just temp mounted in this silly excuse for a paint/sanding booth, but they give plenty of light!

Had to modify the EStopp a bit (shorten) so it would fit with this center console. Ed at Control Cables can shorten the output cable. Great job, inexpensive, fast and great customer service. Shortened the overall length of the system by over 5". Allowed me to cut down the cable separator mount. Just temp'd in here as I don't have the calipers mounted so I can't test it thoroughly but have every confidence it's solid.

Starting the plug for the fiberglass dash/center console. Have had this design in my head from the start, finally getting to see if it will work!

I realize that putting the all of gauges off to the side is a little unconventional but with the seats lowered, this actually puts the tach very much in view without maneuvering your vision around the steering wheel. With shift lights and warning lights on the other critical gauges, this seems to work really well.....at least while looking at printed images of the gauges while sitting in the seat, in the shop! Yep... making race car sounds while shifting come with this test, sorta helps...adds vibration to the mix!

The GPS will be removable and a track monitor will fit in the space. Not sure which one yet. Had originally planned on a mini Ipad but it doesn't really fit in the space and I couldn't get a good handle on an integrated remote antenna and charging cord.

Very early stages right now but conceptually, it's working so far.

Trying to keep the factory shape on the dash, just enhanced.

Open to thoughts and opinions.
