Are you talking the colors of the dash/doors together? I didn't like it at first, but I changed my mind once I seen it outside! I will have to get some pictures of the interior outside of the shop (light inside is terrible) and see if that helps you see it the way I do. I am still trying to figure out what I am going to do to make the column work, I do have one for this style dash that I can use as a template to get some sort of spacer made.

Still have the '89 model wiring, just put the 96 dash over the top of it. So there wasn't much wiring other then on the gauges.



Added a picture, a frontend I haven't seen in a while, just for the sake of doing it.

Keep the questions/feedback coming, it helps me keep on keeping on.
