Default 1st Interior Progress Pics?

I know it doesn't look like much has been accomplished so far but finally got about half the lights/wiring done and decided to stop and put a few of the new interior pieces in. So far only the dash & gauge pod but hope to get a little more accomplished before calling it a night....

Here's a shot of the gauge pod after relocating the LED's I originally had installed in the top of the bezel then moved them to each side instead.


Couple quick shots of the front of dash.
