Default Dash Conversion Update

I have gotten some IMs and Email asking about my dash conversion. So I thought I would post the latest. here is the latest pic taken on 4-21-02


Here is what is left to do:

-Install side console pieces, Armrest and shifter plate.
-Install both seats and seat belt latches
-Install and finish wiring the stereo
-Install Center dash trim
-Wire in my GM Keyless entry
-Wire up the Line Lock
-Install Passengerside hush pad.

next week I will be getting the CCM programmed

I am also waiting for the following to show up .. Driver Side door ajar switch and a new 6spd shifter boot.

Looks good, my son wants to change over his 84, not sure if he can with the X-fire.

Well, he would have to integrate the Dash harness with the current ECM.. OR use the current wiring in the car and use aftermarket gauges
