Nice inexpensive MOD for interior

I have a RS hated the stupid little badge they put on out passanger side of our dash. The IROCs and Z28s get a real cool badages and I wanted that same look, but what to do. Here is my solution. I'm prob not the first person to do this but hay it is 100% better looking. I used the rear bumper badge. All it is, is a thick plastic sticker and you just stick to the dash. I havent had any prob with it falling off. And the best part is I bought it new so the red reflects, unlike the 10 year old badges on the outside of my car. And the red goes great with my interior. What do you think? (p.s. the pic makes my interior look fadded, but I assure you it looks excilent)

Illuminated rearviews are cool, cost me 15.00 for two...one for my other car....so 7.50 for one......anyway, the car looks much better at night.

They have a pair of map lights built into the bottom of the rearview mirror.

I got 'em for my T/A also. I got one for $2.50 at the local "Pull-a-Part". I found another one later in the week near closing time. The register jockey was so busy trying to close up he didn't even charge me for it. It's going in my '87 'burban.

I have the original dome lamp with the two "dope" lights, but I like the effect of the rearview lights more.
