dash progress

We finished the wiring to the gauges behind the dash. We wired everything into quick disconnects so the dash could be easily removed all at once. Finally after a few weeks we've finished all this gauge wiring, cutting, drilling and gluing/setting the dash pad to the dash.


A diagram for reference of the quick disconnects (we actually had to figure out on the stock harness where everything came from).




After test fitting the dash and taking measurements we epoxied this bracket to the back of the dash which will help hold it up on the passenger side.


And finally we started with the gauge cluster which was about 6 inches thick, and removed everything down to this circuit board. We had to keep it because it has a little chip embedded somewhere. Without this, the car wont start.




Next we'll finish the quick disconnects on the car side and finish the dash.
