so today i was planning on pulling my gauges out and replacing the lights with red leds but before i did i figured id see if they fit in my old one and they were too big so now i have to try to find some smaller ones with the same brightness. everything turns into a project with me. and im also LED crazy haha

pulled my glovebox off today and drilled some holes to actually secure the hinge on with bolts instead of double sided tape haha. im also going to put a wire in it so when it opens it doesent just flop and dump all my stuff on the ground. i might make a handle too but im not sure yet. give me some ideas!

haha maybe another one of my atemps at a paint job but its either going to be flat black or satin black. to me the paint is the very last thing on my list but i dont mind it looking like a pos because i know how much work i have into it and i want it to be a beast, an ugly ricer eating beast.
