Here is the process for the flanges between the dash, the A-Pillar and the kickpanel. Wood brackets hot-glued to each piece and the connected together with some scrap sheet metal. Did this for most of the interior panels.
Did this in the car so the brackets are in the exact position.
Then pulled it out of the car and put it back together on saw-horses.
Then laminated the flanges, these will connect the parts together with bolts and rivnuts. Interior guy may modify this but that's above my paygrade.

Printed some plastic molds to help make hand reliefs in the A-Pillar covers. I tried to keep the hand grabs tight to the A-Pillar so they didn't stick out funny and always knew I would have to modify the cover to provide space for knuckles.

Thank you guys!!!
Will mount the fuse panel above the trans tunnel for easy access but need to mount it vertically to not interfere with the AC ducts. Printed this plastic bracket. ABS plastic and it's only 20% solid so it's light but I couldn't break it by hand. Made the areas with bolts 100% solid for added strength (not shown is I used threaded inserts that I melted into the holes and also used nylocks to ensure the fuse panel never came loose. Yep, sorta enamored with this 3D printer, certainly opens up options. I will make an access panel in the side plate for the center console, coming soon.

I don't know how I did things before I got my 3D printer. I takes build quality to a whole new level.
