Well, I put some GAS in it after i run out bout 4:30 this mornin, good thing i had some in a can in the back. It was a u turn and back a couple miles to the station.Gotta fix that gauge for sure, didn't drive it last week and forgot to fill up, atleast it was only $65 or so compared to $100
+ in the 97.

wookee, good guess, and I suppose it would work well for the gauges, but I have other plans for those.


The real destination for this part is where the factory radio goes. here's the factory mount

You can see this would never work for a large double din DVD/nav system, since they didn't have those back then.

Here's the test fit of the new mount

I think it'll work well, and have no visible hardware. It'll be attached from the rear before the glove box goes back in.
