    Aright, meanwhile while the pics get developed heres what I got that so far that has not cuased any problems: I have 9 LEDS
    1 for each front A/C vent and 1 for each inside door handle and 1 to illuminate the shifter light (not the dash shifter light). I have three 4" neon tubes: One was permanently installed inside the speedo when I removed it for painting and the other two is on each side of the center console where ashtray and stuff to illuminate the floor on driver and pass. side. And finally the four leds you see in one of the pic above is a LED strip that was from one those led side mirror turn signals. I ghetto rigged it here (real bright on ceiling and the reflection illiminates whole interior inside. I have everthing on a single switch except for the speedo and the shifter led light which comes on with the parking/head lights.

    Nope....everthing silver/chrome looking used to be black and everything black used to be that dookie brown...I need seat covers bad and find something to do to the carpet and then I'll be straight with getting rid of da dookie brown.

    Heres some more pics

    better quality of front dash




    Heres my 2nd battery (temporary just testing the isolator).....I know it's a hell hole but my whole trunk is under construction....I still have to lay plywood to support the subs and also on the back the seat to secure the amps.


    Just the back ....see the custom tweeters..wouldn't want to sit back here.



    Real clear pic of engine




    Dont worry these wires aren't alive....yet. I prewired all the wires for my three amp set up. The red area is like a template to lay a sheet of plywood so that the amps would be screwed in more secured.

    Alright heres the night shots......bad quality though


    the speedo neon


    You can see the door leds and one of A/C vent led


    The ghetto rigged LED strip...bright!!!


    the center vents and I took out that green filter on the lights of the temperature controls etc. thats why its bright white there.


    from the outside...very noticeable


    close up of one the door leds...these are huge leds (8mm)





    See the neon tube there's another one on the driver side


    Most of all the lights...notice the led inside the shifter position indicator...


    close but very blury but you see the effect
