In an effort to cut down on the interior finishes I just ordered a set of brushed metal steering wheel covers. Eh, it's just another $115. That's the last thing that was wrapped. Figured might as well, the steering wheel itself is new.

If you return those, I have a set of black ones I'll ship you for free so you can paint them to match your door trim...

In all reality the brushed ones aren’t going to look much different than the ones I wrapped. Which I could also strip and paint. But my mind is made up! E20A4481-8508-46EF-81FA-A9B049DB5278.jpeg I did do a nice job with the wrap...

Got 2 small issues resolved today. The HVAC control was only $50 so I got kinda lucky there, just had to swap the escutcheon. The switch bezel was too wide around the outside curve and was hitting on the inside so I had to Dremel out the door panel inside the handle area.

I thought we told you to take a day off! You're mad, man!
I did take a day off- from work that is. I was having problems with my left ankle (again) so I’m going to get it checked out. I just did some minor stuff on the truck lol.

Holy shit I just looked up the part number on the back of that hvac control and used ones are going for $400 on EBay and new ones for $600. If you can find one. I definitely won’t be upgrading the damn thing with the Tech2. It works and looks good, so I’m not gonna mess with it.:(
