**FINISHED** HU relocation

So far so good.

The cage is held in by expanding foam. This is the brainstorming stage where I'm trying to visualize how the sides should look. The bitch part was hacking away the metal behind the cig bezel in order to slide the HU back far enough to still use the cupholders - and not look dumb hanging 9 inches out of the dash board.






I'll post more as the project developes.

I wouldn't glass too close to the cage, and definantly not inside it. Other than that looking good. Must be an 04', my 01' is two seperate pieces.

Yup, 04 - Pain in the ass! Previous years would have been easier - just glass a whole new section like Lud posted before. I'm definitely not going to glass near the cage, I've got a fine line to stop at. I'm still thinking about maybe builing up the sides with expanding foam, carving my contours and just filling with bondo. I'm always indecisive.

I'm willing to bet that If I've got the time, you got the time. I just did a little bit here and there, on lunch breaks and before bed. I work 65 hours/week, go to school nights and I have a GF. My time is usually spoken for. You'd be surprised at how much you can get accomplished in a small time. Even if it takes you a couple weeks or more, if you wanna do something, try it.

Gonna hit it with some Kitty's hair fiberglass enforced bondo and see how it forms, then I'll either paint or vinyl.
