    you can see in this picture how some of the new panels stick out past the panel next to them. all of this extra plastic will be cut/sanded/filed down in the fitment of the completed panel to the dash.

    you can see in this picture how liberal i got with the glue on the second pass. the glue also helped to fill minor gaps where some of the corners met.

    Boy, you've been busy!
    That wiring harness does look intimidating. I think I would faint! :laugh:

    i havent installed the dash trim yet .... when i did the wiring i also integrated a DEI remote start system. i still need to install it's brain.

    i am so pleased with the results of this swap that my next convertible will be a 75 so i will have the 75-76 dash to work with again, i will use 74 taillights and front end sheetmetal and inner door panels.

    i will post pics soon of the final dash, ECM mounting and engine compartment.
