thats what im thinking, its a bit high. if i put the shifter trim piece on, it covers up a little less than half of the ac controls

hmm i say go look around and maybe put clay under neath the console not the body and try to fitt it back in and then remove it and see where its indented and look on the body and maybe that may help a bit.. i just thought this up.. good luck

finished off the dash and put the wheels on. for some reason, its rubbing the coilover on the passenger side rear but not the drivers side rear :?
the dash isnt perfect as you can tell from the pictures, but i worked on it for a long time and it is definetely better than it was before. not sure what to do to make it perfect though, ill figure it out eventually

o yea, got a key cut finally, need someone to come up and program the key so i can start the car.

is there something i should know about putting a gd radiator into a gc?

Lookin' GOOD! I've had two factory GD radiators so far, the damn things tend to leak, I'm gonna have to go aftermarket.
