this was actually just a quick project to fill some time while waiting on some parts. The switches in my switch panel started to fail on me one at a time till 3 out of 8 were bad. I am pretty sure it was my own fault from doing some fine sanding on the pieces and then trying to fit them. The way the latching push buttons work I have had issues before that dirt/dust can collect around the top and then when you push it down it pushes the dirt down into the switch. I contacted the nice folks at sparked innovations and asked if they had a high failure rate on the switches and they did not. After telling them it was my fault they were nice enough to send out a new set all I had to pay was shipping.
Now with them I can install the panel, the console, the front seat and then aim the lights and put them together, the last real thing keeping me from putting it on the road. But I have realized that it doesn't really mean anything to finish it as I still can't go anywhere with my stomach crap. In the last 10 yrs I have only been able to make it 90 miles away for a day/night at most. If I get out of my house for a quick trip to the auto parts or hardware store once a week, that is usually about it.
Got the epoxy out and put it together tonight. Amazing how the camera pics up finger prints on gloss black, the crap on the right wiped off after I saw it in the pic.
Unfortunately it will be a little bit till its lit up I didn't realize the amazon place I got them from was out of china till they shipped them....
