MY 87 TA didnt come with power locks. IM going to have them installed but I want to put these switches in place of the AC to control the locks. All the AC was removed b/c i removed the pc to go carbed. What do you think and is it possible. Also what are thoughts like on a fiberglass center console all the way up to the AC unit as 1 piece.

Very NIce center console
What is the final covering on the top pic"the white one"
Looks like plaster or something....
Looks great, what did you use as a template "wood or plastic"
Thanks

also how are you bolting it in, stock areas

 

the white is masking tape covered with fiberglass and then removed right pic
still have to sand bondo and paint. covered ashtray lighted drive, reverse lighted slot. rounded into a/c control and radio. going to have stainless plate for more switch (Door pops high beams etc.) where window switches are now. have to make a new arm rest. going to just snap back in place. i covered first with a hardboard to raise it up for rounded edges. i just put some more pix up at my car domian site check them out

so u used the stock center console and then removed the fiberglass from it when it was dry..?
The black bezel around the ac and stereo did u leave that in fiberglasss or remove it once done.?

Im really interested in this but have no clue where to start with it...
I would like to make the whole thing from wood then fiberglass over it or would u recomend the way u did it better.

 

left bezel in it
then i covered it with hard board to raise the surface so i can have rounded edges




where i messed up was i used fiberglass cloth instead of fiberglass mat. never done this before. the cloth is too stiff and wouldnt wrap very well, kept popping back up. got real pissed, then i got some mat after some research on here and it went right on. wrapped well around the curves. i am just dreading the sanding part.

 

after it was dry u pop it off. next i need to sand it smooth bondo and sand and then paint. then just put it back on again over the stock console. should snap right back into place i hope

 

i actually put my stereo mount in there too make sure u cover everything well.if u dont the resin will soak through and will stick. layer of tape then a layer of foil then more tape.
