Well, I'm still trying out different proceedures as I go to save time & to solve a couple of gelcoat related issues. My goal is to cut down hand lay-up time by 40% & have very little to zero gelcoat touch-up before shipping. I'm learning as I go.

Hey Steve, I did get the front springs in, will need to get an alignment done. While working on it I noticed that I was driving all this time with a serious toe-out setting; no wonder the tires looked scuffed. I'll try to get this car road worthy by picnic time.

Any pics of the HVAC at night? Is there adjustment (high/low) dimmer switch?

Unfortunately it doesn't look any different at night... I intended to make the panel light up, but it's just so darned thin that there's not really any way to get even lighting in there. Then I was just going to make the knob indicators light up; getting an LED into the knobs wouldn't be a problem, but getting power to the LED would be. There's not enough room to have electrical wipers on the bottom of the knobs to contact the circuit boards, and thin wires would eventually just break off even if they could be fit. The OEM 355 panel is a good 1"+ thick, and is lit with a handfull of green-condomed light bulbs inside. To keep the center console low and still fit the HVAC panel in there it had to be 1/4" thick or so to clear the shifter mechanism... There are 2 green LEDs inside the panel, one lights up when the AC button (hidden under the panel, next to the STOP button) is pressed, the other turns on when the "Recirculate" button is pressed. They show up as little green dots through the surface of the panel. (It's black, but somewhat translucent)

For everything including shipping in the US, it’s $300, assuming it’s a Fiero with factory AC. (Non AC cars need 2 more servos, so $340..) I’m waaay behind on orders right now, I build them in my spare time which has been pretty much nonexistent lately.
Don't know if price has changed but this is what he e-mailed me awhile ago.

The hvac panel is very thin, for low profile consoles, but I imaging it can be mounted on the dash as well.

I hope I didn't ruin my new paint by doing this. I heard that epoxy is a great adhesive. we'll see.
