That at a garage sale? What year? Custom insert and gauges on the hook up? Are you locked in hard for SEMA 2013?

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
I'm down with that dash! Looking at Cloud 9, you're inclined to have a stock look. On that dash, I can see it bone stock, except with period-appropriate A/C vents in the ashtray & HVAC control holes, and the new A/C knobs in the three holes right of the column (with correct knobs, of course). IDK if you planned to keep the ignition in the column, but that would make those holes unneeded.
Of course, opinions are like......well, you know! Edit---just had a thought! They have those starter-button-in-the-column things. Maybe that would jive into the above mix somehow. My wife's furen car has a no-key-needed pushbutton start---ya' kinda get used to that! Or, it might look cool to have lights-wipers-start on the left of the column, AC-AC-AC on the right.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
While I'm on this dash kick---I suggested to a cat at Dakota Digital that they consider putting a remote audio input option in their panels. Have the info for the audio on their "info" screen buried in the electronics of the panel. They could partner up with Secret Audio to use their remote controller (or reverse-engineer SA's). Then guys like you could leave the AM radio in the dash, and not have to put some dinky little screen in the glovebox. The jack could be put on the bottom side of the dash (out of sight).
I'm a Monday morning dash quarterback.

I like that idea a lot , except for the SEcret Audio part. Their stuff is garbage.

Re: Slosh Tubz new company project "Square Peg" frame laying 1987 GMC Jimmy
other radio's like the ones from sony have pretty elaborate remotes you could hide those radio's under the seat and still have complee controll , you need a infrared remote control extender those are eazy to find and cheap to make youreself too the reciever is a small led like device you could hide inside the gaugecluster
you used to need to be able to keep the rado within reach t change cd's or cassettes but with the usb stick and mp3 hookups nowadays you just need a verry small rectangulair hole in the dash for the usb hookup and a small round hole for the minijack and youre fixed , you could make those somewat under the dash so there not realy visable there some cars here that use the cars lcd display for the basic radio info like wat station youre listening and trafic info , not sure how they do that usually they use a radio that is car brand related for that but i think dacota might have or can make sumting simulair that works with the lcd display inside one of there gauges
