That's awesome! Does he offer this as a service?! I would LOVE to have this done. I read it was hard to do the HVAC for a guy like me without the Tstar abilities!

I've printed more of tstars threads than anyone's here on CF forum. The man knows his stuff!
I've been cruising the big auction and this (and other forums) picking up all the switch and button sets (ie; door switch's, HVAC controls, DIC buttons, etc...) so I can do the LED swaps (in ultra blue) at my leisure this winter. Tim (and a few other's) efforts documenting these mods are the main reason I have the confidence to try at all. Great thread!! Kudo's have been due Tim for his work...! Mahalo again Brudda

...But "speechless"??

Haole shut up now...
Aloha

You make a good point Michael, I bought spares for all the items that required a destructive mod to, although they could be returned to stock if need be I thought it would be better to retain my original pieces. The Traction Plate, HUD switch pack and Door Reflectors are three that require drilling and or cutting...

Haoles cutting up Haoles! What has the world come to... ???

You better be careful or I'll sic some Menehunees on your Vette!

I wasn't able to get around to it because of work and on-call schedule crap ---

That thread was/is legendary! It was like the Titanic of threads (because of it's size --- not like it sank or anything!

Since then, you have grown in leeps and bounds Tim --- good for you!
