I do have confidence that I could remedy these but I do want to drive this truck someday and the time/money it would take to do this I have come to feel would not be worth it. And # 2 comfortron. Even though they do make a hvac control panel that directly fits in cosmetically I've studied this over many occasions and it's too complicated to work it into our hvac system. So hopefully the parts come in the next 2 weeks to mount this antenna and then it will be off to final metal and in the new year. My head hurts thinking how to work all these cadillac options into this truck. Maby next year I'll complete this build. We'll see how fast this goes thru bodywork. I'm sure it won't be as fast as I like lol.

I'll believe you're done with mods when the truck is done. This whole truck is a GMC-tron. I kid you about it, but I don't want you to stop. I love what you have done/are doing. It is inspired and remarkably cohesive. Don't stop.

You can barely notice that its there from the outside. The other I'll find a place for in the engine bay.

Now you're just tooting your own horn.

Well I got the bezel in the mail today and it fits the body curve of the fender really well. I did use a spare driver fender Just to see if it would fit before I made the mod on my fender I'm using. I was going to do the mod on my passenger fender but where I have it here on the fender sitting in the driver seat you can't even see it. It's behind the Pillar so I might leave it there. Would be easier to mod the cowl behind d it on the driver side because the a/c stuff isn't there. Now to figure out bracketry.
