CV2065 MKIV Build Thread - Graduated!

[cv2065]

Last thing I've to get done from a third party is my trans cover. I'm going to drop it off tomorrow or Friday, so test fitted the boot, trim ring, stereo remote and cup holders again as I bought the FFMetals heavy duty cover with thicker metal. Definitely worth the upgrade! Also put the trans through all gears to make sure I'm not interfering with anything. As an added bonus, I can turn the volume up or down with my pinky finger when cruising in third!






Plan is to duplicate the leather from the stick shift boot on the trans cover (very close looking to the dash) and have red stitching to match the boot stripes. I'll keep everything in place with a couple of strips of industrial velcro. I had originally planned to use screws but the velcro should be seamless and just as effective.

I'm currently carpeting the trunk and will start on the louvers and trimming the body a little more in the next day or so. Plan is to have the body just about ready to go on for a final time by the end of the weekend.
