dog24fret Posted July 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 Some progress on the console finally. This isn't the best but it is all done by me at least. Got way out of comfort zone with this sewing. I did many hours of trial and error but still messed up. Happy for now. The lights are much dimmer in person than on the camera. Oh I also used a dense foam that I forgot the name of. To smooth out the transition from the dash to the console and the front to the back section.

dog24fret Posted July 27, 2021 Author Report Share Posted July 27, 2021 Got the inverter,lights hardwired to the dash lights,the DSP and the plugs all wired up. Pretty happy with the look of it. Just wished that the headliner didn't pull apart on me. I plan on redoing the console later to make a better and cleaner look.

dog24fret Posted August 8, 2021 Author Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Sub wall is almost completed. Got a few details I am planning still. Made the side trim panels removable. I will be adding fans on the sides to move air to the back and pull it out to the cabin. The back half of the burb gets so hot. You can barely touch the amps with no power. We hit 100 with 110 index. The amps were 160 with no power. I am gonna make a layered insulation piece for the back glass. Maybe it will slow the heat down. I've got it blacked out with grey primer and and a layer of rubberized undercoat. But it just heats up anyways. The top and bottom trims matched the angles even. Not pro but I'm very happy with this.

Not a showy or polished as some. But for this old fart it is perfect old-school style 🤣 Cowboy Escort GrAnny ThUmper The Burp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
