Moving on to the switchpod! HELL`s work to get this thing fitted to the dash. Way to thick, to wide and to square!
So, heavy progress!

Had to cut alot to get it even close to fitting the dash.

Your work is awesome!! Wish I had your skills. I am from Grants Pass Oregon, u.s.a. I just bought a KITT in pretty rough shape in Puyallup, Washington. I hope I can restore my KITT to at least 1/2 of what both of your KITT's are! Absolutely amazing work sir! :)
