Default OK....I guess I wasn't REALLY done modding

The big stuff is obviously done. But guys, remember.....it's all in the small details.

As you might know, my cockpit is all black with the exception of the red seatbelts. These 2 small mods are tasteful.....red Carbon Fiber start/stop button. Also notice that the "Screen" up and down button is now done in Carbon Fiber too.

I really like that engine start/stop button. If you don’t mind, where did you get it and how difficult was the install?

Jack, here is the link for this item:

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Carbon-Fibe...72.m2749.l2649



It's just an overlay, so it came with contoured 2-sided tape! Plus, they have traditional Carbon Fiber color button as well. Simple install.....

Looks good I have the same start and stop button, only wish the weave was going the other direction to match dash.

Did you make the carbon fiber weave go the opposite direction on purpose? Looks strange to my eye.

No, it came that way. I wish it was the same direction as the dash, but I'll live......
