    New mods installed

    Check my gallery for a picture of my new overhead console with homelink, digital voice recorder, and sunglass holder. It also has two switches that were for power windows - haven't decided what to do with those yet

    Also, you can kind of see the new auto dimming rearview mirror with built in compass and outside temp display. It also has On-Star, which obviously is NOT hooked up. Sorry for the crappy pictures - I can't get them to come out clear for some reason - they are very clear on my computer, but something is happenning in translation :wtfp:

    Also there is a picture of the new Rodeo rear headrests that I recently installed. What a difference those made in the rear visibility! You wouldn't think being able to see over in those corners would make much of a difference - but it does. Those combined with the "Van-eyes" I put in a while back ALMOST make me think I have a verhicle with a rear window!

    I almost forgot - the best part of these mods was the cost - under $75 for all of it!! (and a lot of work!)

    Question

    How difficult are the indiglo gauge faces to install? I think those look much better than stock.

    Easy installation - about 1 hour to install. The toughest part is getting the dash face off - then you just unscrew the four screws holding the instrument cluster in, pull off the face plate, slide the new faces on (no need to remove needles or old plates - these slide over the needles and into place), wire it into the dash lights, and put it all back together.

    Where did you get the glow guages? I've been looking all over for them.


    Unless, their the same as a Rodeo....

    Very nice job!! Love the overhead console!

    I give up posting pics on here because of them turning out just like yours did. Not sure what the problem is!
    The price you pay to be different......

    ...

    usually when I post pics to this site they are fine on my half, but when I post them they look distorted, but when I click on them twice they come out clear.
