Thought some of you might enjoy this....the others...well....have fun making fun.

Needed some high tech "Things" only one place I know has em all... Salvation Army, next time you need aluminum or stainless covers in odd sizes try a couple of em, goodwill etc.... dog bowls, decorative frying pans in .030 steel for old spun ugly orange anodized aluminum circa 1960 kitchen canisters....use your imagination ... Total Cost $6.50 Total modification and installation time 43 minutes. Including a whole bunch of new in pack sheet metal screws etc....(It was %50 off day there today) Enjoy......

Total time to procure and modify and install , 43 minutes.

Parts taken care of.

Steering column decorative cover under quick couplet (Some polycarbonate wierd stuff thats ...wierd....harder than hell and nearly impossible to drill ? Part of some kinda vacum canister for the kitchen, but it dosent scratch

Firewall recess for "engine camera" (yeah really were gonna run one when allowed why ? because we can cost of infared engine camera $9 when you remove the visible light filter from a connectix quick cam, aluminum cupcake thing, like .080 thick will do nice)

2 speaker firewall covers for package tray (Decorative tin plated steel .039)

And a couple other odds and ends.... We were going to use a big tin painted eyeball for the camera mount/cover but they were out of stock of tin painted eyeballs 3.5 in diamater (come on OUT OF STOCK ? Its not like theyre the hot Christmas gift of the year)
