LOL yeah. The fridge will be later on. I think I'll put a bed in the back too! j/k

Anyway, I raided the mailbox about 30 minutes ago, and I'm no longer waiting for the HVAC and headlight panels. Here are the pictures:

I've been looking at getting some of these myself. My question is what do they look like at night. It looks like the heater panel is the same colors as my gauges but do they light up blue and red like my gauges at night. It looks like the headlight pamel just shines through from behind, am I right about that? I have been thinking about doing what drperry did and change to blue led's for the lights. Than I am thinking about getting a carbon fiber dash kit, but that's another story lol.

Yeah they look pretty good, glad you like em. I don't think I would like them in my truck. I would rather accent paint the ac vents, and radio surround and door hadle surrounds. I finally got my last LED's in to finish up the LED dash conversion.

Took me all of 15 minutes to put them in.I'll get those gauges in when I get them too. I doubt I'll get them before next Tuesday, They come via UPS, the others came USmail.

I'm looking forward to gettingthe subs in Friday. I like a little extra thump in the trunk, IYNWIM!

I think I gotthe gauges and instrument panelsfor around 80 bucks total on ebay. The subs and boxis $150 used, amp is $175 new, taps $20, installation $50. I'm getting a deal considering I'm getting two lightly used MTX subs, an Orion 800, and a box for less than $500!!


BTW
I was looking at the build package on my blazer and found out it should have had a black dash bezel, not a tan. So if anyone has a black one that they want to part with....
Apparently the first owner cracked the bezel somehow and replaced it to match the dash. I may just take it out and paint the vents black.

OK, I have a question. I got the new gauges in today and they require wiring to the dash light power wire or the Cig Ltr wire. I would prefer wiring it to thedash light power wire, but which wire is it? The gauges are Electro-Luminescentif you need to know.


Edit***
Crap!! I double-posted! Sorry about that.
