What did you do to your NA today 2015?

[Paul B]

1) Changed oil.
2) Cleaned the swamp out of my trunk caused by massive leaks from my new tail light panel.
3) Took the opportunity, to install some sound deadener in my trunk.
4) Bought all new weatherstripping for... Everywhere.
5) Drove... Everywhere... To try and find a shop that will fix my new tail light panel so that it will actually do something crazy, like fit.
6) Wallowed in sadness over the plethora of body shops that refuse to touch my new tail light panel because it is too "messed up" and there is "no hope of fabricating it to fit"
7) Found someone who does all the fiberglass work for local race teams, (supposedly best in town (recommended by his own competition)), says he can fix my $400 tail light panel for $450 without paint... $840 with paint.
8) Died a little inside...
9) Sat in my car in my driveway and contemplated life.
10) Decided to paint my RetroModern cup holder to make myself feel better.

What panel is this?

Weeeeeelllllll, I'm still trying to sort out my options as far as getting things settled through the company that makes it. So, I don't really want to bash them directly until they have had a chance to make it right. But if I have to pay $800 on top of the $400 spent for the panel, it will be a one of a kind MontaltoWorks Tail Light panel lol

Installed my 1600 dash, but it's missing a couple of parts (gauge hood, kick panel, interior lighting) and also the carpet needs a really good clean.

Also received a package from superbrightleds and replaced all my HVAC bulbs with the led equivalent. I have the reverse lights to replace with leds, too, but I couldn't finish it today.



Finally, I am waiting a part I've been after for a loooong time, not that it's something rare, or special, but it's a nice piece.

Got another kick in the groin.

Discovered why the car leaked coolant.

I had that same leak on my 95...I ended up just beating a brass hose barb into it...never leaked again!

I can take a guess, I've heard a few grumblings of panels not fitting from someone lately and seen the problem.

Finally got my newly re-webbed seatbelts with new lift-latch buckles. I decided to get these done in black because the tan gets too dirty. I think they look good in black. These are cruddy iPad pics, but you get the idea. I took these in a dark garage, so sorry for the poor lighting.

Unlike my stock buckles, these actually feel solid and SAFE.

Those are old-school, nice!

Nice, thank you for the tip.

A friend of mine had the part lying around. Otherwise I see IL charges almost 100 € for it.

Man i REALLY like these! You mind sharing what they ended up costing shipped to your door and what options you got? If you would rather not publicly please PM me because i am definitely interested in a set. Especially since i forgot to cut me loop on my oem belt when i removed the oem steering wheel and would rather remove the whole belt and replace rather than cut in case i go back to stock...not that stock ones are hard to find.

If you could get some better pics that would be fantastic and much appreciated!

PM sent.

[RustRat]

Aaaand, done! Thanks to Demon's instructions, KGWorks panel fitted.

[HarryB]

I so need this in my life! Looks great buddy!

[mx54life]

Yes indeed the KG panel brings the interior into different level. The problem with it is your quest for personal retro theme had just been confirmed doable. Congrats this piece brings long lasting joy.
