Rd2 Shifter Surround In Rd1. Looks Good But..
There is an ugly gap between the RD2 shifter surround and the RD1 Stereo surround. Can this be cured by swapping the stereo surround to an RD2s?
I'm trying to figure out how to make this look organic. Any suggestions? Eventually, I'll complete a full RD1->RD2 Swap.

if you do shifter surround you need to do radio surround
if you do radio surround you need to do big dash piece
if you do big dash piece you need to do complete wiring harness/HVAC (for all switches, HVAC, etc)
catch my drift....
If you are looking for a permanent fix for that gap maybe some fiberglassing (but if are getting RD2 parts soon just live with the gap, imo). wink1.gif
btw, where do you plan on getting all this? I plan to do the same, maybe we can help each other out. fing02.gif

NO matter what you'll have that gap. No way around it.
I'm in the process right now of doing something to help out though. I'm thinking some sort of gauge pod or something to cover the difference.
