Man that sucks. Sorry to hear that. I am sure something better will come along soon.

26k on views is pretty bad a s s, but when you look at your own page 10k times in 3 years doesn't really count :)

Going to try and put some designs together for the meet today if the wifey doesn't have time.

Looks very white, and I like it! Will be waiting for the pic of your clock display. ;)

As usual, pics don't do it justice. They're, to date, the brightest license plates i've had on my car, lol. I'm worried they're TOO bright.

Clock looks the same; no change. It was just burned out so I bought a replacement LED.

SBL.

For the clock:
1 - NEOx-x: NEOx LED Bulb - Instrument Panel LED NEO3-W: 3mm NEO3-x Cool White

License plate:
2 - WLED-xHP: 194 LED Bulb - 1 SMD LED Wedge Base WLED-WHP: Cool White

Thinking about redoing my LEDs. Next chance I can, I'm thinking about ordering 5 more of the 194(doors/map/trunk), a handful of the instruments(HVAC), and maybe even pick up bulbs for my tails. They're $25/ea but they're the brightest ones SBL makes. I'll probably just order a pair to see how I like them. If not, I might just have to go to v-leds.

Did this today. Didn't take as long as I thought it would. Small, nimble fingers and/or a wire hook would've made it WAAAY easier. Hoping the wrinkles smooth out over time.











There wasn't too much foam missing. Or at least not as much as I thought there'd be. The tattered parts of leather really make it look worse than it really is.





Only tools I needed were the ratchet to unhook the battery, a Phillips, a flat, and needle-nose pliers.

It will smooth out/tighten up. When I converted my interior to leather, all mine looked loose like that. Tightened up after about a month in this Florida heat.
Did you only do the seat back?

Yeah. My gf thinks I should've redone the whole thing but I couldn't find bottoms.

Looks good, my seat looks a lot worse the foam is missing on mine. Where did you get the factory leather from?
Ebay.
