Rocket Man's 2008 Bagged CC Silverado Build AKA "THE MACHINE"

[Rocket Man]

I changed my mind on the tank pressure gauge- I’m going with the digital readout one with the digital sender. It won’t bounce up and down like the other because the pressure will stay steady and that way I can eliminate all the air lines running to them and just run wires.

RIP Mad Mike "Rocket Man" Hughes..guess we’ll never find out if Earth is flat or not after all.

Had another day off so I eliminated a tiny bit of chrome by murdering the spare HVAC control escutcheon. I also wanted to redo the buttons because when I originally put stickers on them I didn’t remove all the paint under them which showed when the backlights were lit. I might not have roughed up the chrome enough so I’ll probably disassemble the other one and do that and use those parts on this one.

More pics. Looks better. I need to do this to the cup holder buttons but can’t figure out how to take it apart.

Maybe use a q-tip on the button?
