I am certain everyone is wondering with baited breath... Is he going to do anything with the hvac/radio support brackets? 
Yes, I have,  here are a few sequences of the parts bent and then assembled, I didn't make any springs or proper hinge washers/ bolt etc I will get to that eventually.
Also here are the consul button ring retainer mounts one also bent and formed but missing a single standoff that fell into the drink while cutting it and I forgot to fish it out.....
Please enjoy the images

Thanks guys.  Well here is what I did today,  I made the muffler bracket from the files provided by our good friend String, also I have cut out the B pillar sheet metal areas as I start to work on the mid structural sections of the build
Enjoy

Been busy with several areas, but making progress.
These are not complete but custom made for Mr Butler, there is a final coat that will give a smooth finish, they are not as bumpy as the image seems to suggest

Thank you, the buttons have an optical light pipe added after they have been drilled, not all of the buttons require the red led so I did not incorporate the hole as part of the initial mould I have a jig to drill the hole afterwards then I added the light pipe compound

A bit late on posting these pics,
These are buttons I manufactured, the original files are to be credited to String as we have worked together on these.
The button was 3D printed initially and a few issues worked out, then it was moulded and cast in multilayered plastics.
After these have set, I then used one of my lasers to etch the icons onto the button face.
The internal LEDs are green for night illumination with the required buttons having a red led also for actuation verification.
Enjoy.....
Very Nice! How did you manage to cast the red led light so perfectly in your buttons?
