Another view of the dash so you can see it bolts to the old 3rd gen mounting points. (I managed to get 3 in and drilled a 4th hole) it seems solid.

I installed the dash all by mysealf. I put the jacks on either side and worked my leg under the dash just enough to lift it uo like 2 inches to get the bolts in. It still needs side brackets and a bottom brace.

We had a little trouble getting the dash mounted like the rest of the conversions to all the 3rd gen matching holes. I think it was becuse the dash sagged in the middle. we will support it next try. Note the ENTIRE 4th gen harness ready for installation.

The original fan area was difficult to smooth out. The result is less than ideal but i felt like i had spent way too much time on this area of the swap already.

Here is the promised shots of the fresh air ducting. Although small the main goal is to be able to VENT the system so it cam breath and prevent mold from growing in the system and creating a stinky a/c system.
