Update on the center console, its being roughed in currently. Reusing the stock consoles plastic container and the top pad (the pad will be recovered and remade, just using the plastic for the latch)
The ipad will go where the stock stereo/ac controls went and be on an actuator that will slide it down to reveal the recessed a/c controls, alky controller, scanmaster etc. The ipad will control the stereo, navigation etc on the vehicle. The hole in the center is for the cup holders using a piece from an acura. You can see the ratchet shifter hole, the way it works is you tap it forward or backwards to change gears, it doesn't slide like a stock shifter.
The top smooth part above the shifter will hold the eq for the stereo, volume control for the ipad and the black billet switches for the windows and locks (new door panels have no switches)
I like the way its coming together, should be 100% done this friday (the console not the car lol)

Looks like it still has the halogens on. Aren't you putting hid's in?

I guess his have the light diffusers like the stock light where is the hid housings I have are clear with the dimpled insides to diffuse the light at different angles instead of on the glass.
Honestly no idea, but they are bright and look great lol

Looking good. Damn, makes me reconsider going all black...
You know what they say about going black.... lol
Few pictures of the trunk coming together, love the way it looks
The pieces are made with heat treated pieces of thin plastic that harden when cooled then wrapped in leather. Gives a much more factory appearance
