first off WOW 700 people reading this topic, second looks AMAZING, i was first a little off put by the reflection on the RF amps, but with that solved, it looks fantastic. I have some of those RGB SMD (surface mount diode... ironic no?) to light up a set of shelves and they look awesome. AMAZING work Steve!

Just curious Steve but how did you plan on finishing the trim panels? If you already said it I missed it I was assuming you'd just be wrapping them in vinyl like in the Tahoe? For some reason I feel like doing a black flocked "soft-touch" finish would look amazing in there. It'd look almost like a suede finish and would have a similar feel to it if you've never encountered it before. Just something that came to mind looking at it almost finished with the LED's going in there.

IDK I just found it on Google images but I know it'd look damn good on Meade's box

EDIT: A little research on the site I pulled it from says it's a flocked dash from a Peugeot 106. Not as fancy of a car as I was hoping for.

I am doing black leather with blue french seam stitching at all the breaks. Suede inserts like the seats. It will match my interior perfectly.
