Question on your a/c vents.... Are you using two outlets for the side defrost vents? If so, that would leave only two more vents for the front dash, not four, right? Restomod has four outlets in the front and four in the back, I believe.

Is there a rule that AC buttons need to be in a straight line?

I Removed the stress of this dash layout by realizing that I can always cut a new dash later if I don’t like this one!

Your no rules! Do whats comfy! Grab a milk crate and a and pretend your driving the all around, where do you want your controls ? Just dont fiberglass your dash

Just dont fiberglass your dash

The mother of all sins!

I think you need more switches. Which one turns on the blender?

That one should be in easy access.

Or the massager

Moving shapes around.

For best placement, make sure you are sitting in your Pig w/ imaginary steering wheel and making vroom-vroom noises...

I am using the four cab facing outlets for the dash, and will be splitting the four firewall facing outlets between the floor, side vents, and front window. Talked w Tcarrier and he used only one for the floor and the remaining 3 for the defrost (side vents and window). Suggestion was to use one for the main driver Defrost and split the remaining two on the side and window defrost.
Does that make sense?

 

[xtiaan2000]

How has your experience been?

I used both yours and Tcarrier’s as my guide. As I said I got a little more in-depth counsel from Tcarrier because he said he had great results.

 

[RUSH55]

Good ol’ Tcarrier!

@xtiaan2000 Yo! Figured out the best vent position location. I forgot to ask my boy in Ali out in Ahwar, Yemen.

He said that if you want the deluxe version with Dual Climate control that’s another 12,514 Rial.

Ahhh yez boi

Wise decision! I'm not totally happy yet. Due to my vent placement and/or power of the fan, I don't feel the cool air blowing in my hair. This will be fixed some how, either a booster fan or also a second unit behind the seats blowing back at me. I had a lot of trouble with enough room for all the vent tubing and keeping it out of the wiper system's way. I made it worse by recessing the middle part of my dash.

Got a little bit of stuff done.

never wanna deal with water entering through that path. I welded the seam above it as well.

this got done.

Kinda stoked here. Learned some cool stuff on this part.

Where are the slide out cup holders? This is a Toyota after all.

 

[xtiaan2000]

I saw these ones that Jmack had but I am going to stick with foosball fold types that mount to my doors.

I am stoked with the whole lowering of the corners so that panels wouldnt just extend below the original.
I like to pretend I’m a fabricator.

Bondo will really make it look cool! Bondo fixes everything.

 

[bobm]

You're good at pretending

 

[RUSH55]

Looking excellent man!

 

[scrapdaddy]

Good job on the dash, your wagon is really coming along, but J Mack's cup holders are hard to beat.

Fabiddy fab

Thanks Abcruiser!
