I remember my dad having this on his old truck as a temporary fix that turned into permanent until he sold it. Yes it could be considered trashy, but I always thought it looked unique and I mean shoot it worked for a cheap price. I am thinking about making this a project on my RS since I don't have the money right now or in the intimidate future to replace the dash or even get a dash pad. I figured I would get opinions on the matter and throw a cheap alternative out to some of the community out here.
