Cheers buddy, the boot mat is a nice touch.
Reet then, faffing part 2!
De-cluttering of the interior....
Previously, I had a dual A pillar pod with a blanking plate and oil temp gauge. In addition to this, I have a triple dash pod with volts, AFR and oil pressure gauges.
I decided something had to give!
I got hold of a mint, used T bar A pillar trim off ebay, whipped off the A pillar trim with pod, and fitted the standard trim.
This left me with an oil temp gauge to go somewhere. Additional fittings to cater for this were out of the question, so the volts gauge was to give up its home in the center pod!
Problem was that the loom for the oil gauge wasn't long enough to reach....
I had a load of Toyota wiring spare, so made up a tidy loom extension for the oil temp gauge to reach its new position.
cue dash trim panels off, gauge pod off, volt gauge removed, oil temp gauge in situ, and connected up with the new loom extension. It works as it should.
Car interior all back together, I went for a country road drive. Unrelated, but this car drives perfectly.
gauges in the center pod all working as they should, I got a quick pic of my much tidier interior:
Nice having all the gauges in the same place. In addition to this, and at Magic Bean's request, a side shot of the car with the stock rear bumper fitted:
that's it....for now.
