I'll have to look into that area. I didn't know if I'd have enough room or if it would interfere with the ashtray. Looks like I don't have too many options though. Thanks for the pic!

I did a search here and over on CP and didn't find much. Thanks for the tip though. Interesting idea.


Falcon,yes that looks great,but I'm looking to not stray from original as much as possible.
