I get it, it was kind of toungue-in-cheek. Kind of like saying, "Well I got the new front door in, now to start the rest of the house."

Looks good though, I'm a fan of the a/c vent gauge. I probably would have used the vent on the drivers' side though, so as to retain the center vents directional control.

Why would you put it in the A/C vent?

It's either that or you add an a-pillar gauge pod. The vent is still functional (air blows around the gauge), but you just lose volume of airflow and directional control. I don't mind the installation, but I just would have chosen the far-left dash vent myself. It's a clean install.

This is pretty funny cause I'm in the middle of doing this myself and just posted a thread on getting through the firewall. Did you run the vacuum line? WHERE THE HELL DID YOU RUN IT THROUGH! lol

There is a little butt plug under your dash that go out the fire wall. I ran it through there.
