What are the yellow, red, and black wires running into your passenger door? Im assuming the blue is speaker wire?
its actually fan wires and other accessory wires going from the interior, through the hinge water seal and in the back side of the fender to the engine bay

yea yea yea i know im going slower then i had hoped, but still happy with how its turning out. Sanded 60/100/200 today think that will be enough for high build primer and then paint.






Also tore down the expy seat on Saturday so here's a few pics from that






Painted the tan female seatbelt


And test fitted the frame on the floor of my truck


Still need to get the lower seat cushion reupholstered and need to finish the column situation and ill be good to go


Any opinions on Gloss black, or match the console black?

personally im leaning towards attempting to match the stock console black to keep it looking as factory/stock as possible which goes with the theme of my truck

I'd say match stock, unless you have some matching gloss pieces on your dash...

I do have some gloss pieces on my dash, radio surround and steering column surround. Picture from earlier in the thread



I think im gonna start with trying to match stock and see how it looks and can do gloss if needed depending on how it turns out in "stock black"
