I finally got my power windows with the 70 bolt in glass all installed today with ALL of the pieces! All of the right pieces.....took me 4 tries and each time a part was broken, stripped, missing, etc etc etc! And it's FINALLY DONE!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MN69Grande 203 Report post Posted April 23, 2016 Got the Gauges installed and heater controls. Tested the new wiring. Headlights aren't working so that isn't fun, but the car didn't catch fire so that is good. Also fitted a switch to the shift lever to control the Gearvendors OD. Probably won't get the actual OD installed until mid to late summer but as I'm doing wiring now I'm trying to figure out where to put everything.

JayEstes 172 Report post Posted May 29, 2016 Got this installed today Is this an aftermarket product available, or did you make it? It looks too high at the fenders, does it just rest in place for work on the car? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
