The OE sunglass upper console was not staying latched.

Part 410867543A  hook mechanism was broken.  57$

After I purchased the OE hook Mech.  Saw an item on ebay that looks similar.  ::tongue   $7 for 4  :LL:  figures.  Not sure if they are the same size or not  8)

The little metal clip part 418868847  is 319$  ....dont loose it  :LL:

Also the plastic flocked tray was cracked and had to use a bit of super glue to fix it.

Well Well, The REDO is coming long at warp speed now!

Made a plug then a mold of the HVAC trim piece.

Fitted the Riceburner Hvac controller and the OE Lambo Aluminum ring piece.#410861719

The REDO has been sitting for a while do to Family health issues. 

Back on it and just finished some interior pieces and sent them to the upholstery guy.  Have two more interior pieces and the HVAC lid and stereo piece.

The interior is like a jigsaw puzzle

The attachment points were at first difficult, but they became easier over time

A lot of cutting and pasting.

Hello, I enjoy seeing your build, your work is amazing.
Do you still make the door cards? I am after a set, I bought some of those
Kit car ones from that US company, and they are just going to take too much work to get them to fit. Thanks

Dash is just about ready to take to the upholstery shop.  Lost track of how many adjustments that had to be made to the OEM sized replica dash to fit the G28.  Had to do some of them twice  ::toothy

The hole for the pod, both ends of the dash shortened, Flange along the front the dash the A pillar openings on each side, the center console openings. left and right side of the steering wheel, the buttonhole opening to the left of the steering wheel,  the airbag opening, the grab handle area.  Flanges on each end.
