Mine is done. Here are some pics of it installed.



Everything is wired up, except the window switches. They are next. The hvac is functional, and was a real pita to install. Had to run vacuum lines up the passenger a-pillar to make the mode selector work.

 

are you using the L's trip computer or the expy one?

 

Trip computer? I have the stock L temp display up there, I don't have a trip computer. I just modified the expy overhead to fit my display.

 

could you show me that more in detail? a couple pictures of that area up close would help me out alot.

 

Sure, I don't have a ton of pics, but I have one of the back with the display out, and a pic of the front with the display in. It didn't fit worth a crap, so I covered the L display with thin tape, and set it in place in the console. I had to trim a little off of the sides to make it fit right, and then secured it with duct tape temporarily. Then I turned the console over so I could fill the gaps with bondo. I used a scribe to trim around the display while the bondo was still a little plyable. Then I let is set for an hour or so and popped the display out. Then I just sanded and fit the display until it looked right. Then I painted it.




Hope this helps.

Hey do you still have this overhead console in your truck?

 

IIRC he sold the truck about a year or two after he posted that...

 

I wonder if the other guy who used the same set up has his still.

 

I doubt it, unless he's changed his screen name when the Lightning crowd migrated...
