When test fitting the entire unit with the dash surround I noticed something that is good to know in case anyone else is planning on doing this.
Notice that there is a 'gap' from where the clear acrylic would be if it had not been removed (I really need a better camera):
Never mind the ship rigging underneath the dash, focus on the 'gap' or as it's technically called, the raging crevice of idiocy:
For more contrast I put a scrap piece of vinyl with the clothe side out so you can better see how much it's actually short by:
So if anyone is planning on doing this and would like to do it better than me; build up the leading edge to remedy the gap that you will encounter if you do not, also remove the mounting location for the clear acrylic. By doing this you will avoid the gap as well as be able to glue the vinyl down so it's more uniform.
Here's a completed shot of the Digital Dash surround when it is fully wrapped:
Here's a shot of the under 'rigging' (I was thinking I should have pulled a TTT and done some nautical rigging underneath it... but I didn't because I was lazy and in a rush).
So... any thoughts or comments?
More on the gap: It will not be seen while you're driving, but does leave space enough for the possibility of accent lighting if I chose to go that route. However, I think if I had to do it over again, I would have built up the leading edge by either using epoxy or cutting the clear acrylic leaving the boarder/boundary of it.
