Short day today company coming - mid 80's & the pool is open @ 85 degrees. Expect company most weekends.

Dash prepped for covering.

Trial fit after a few nips, tucks, bends & hammer whacks. Easy Peazy.

The metal Toggle switches are installed in the dash harness. Next cover it, install the gauges & wire them ?‍?. Add the Snake & COBRA script & move on to putting the transmission back in.

Got up early & ran some Moonshine Roads with the Z4. Coming up on 1000 miles out of 1200 break-in miles so letting it run a bit harder. Great fun, the car is more than I expected. Nice road test by a pro driver

Got the dash and trans tunnel covered. All the gauges & lose switches are in. Will mount the 4 on the cars harness when I install the dash. Still have to stick the snake & Cobra scrip on it.

Next is a makeover of the console

Also always liked the smaller cars. Still have my 2013 135IS 6MT while 2 newer 4 series cars are now gone.

Light work day today its just to nice out. Recovered the Transmission Cover & added a pair of dual output marine USB ports. Stripped the console & will recover that. Still need to wire the dash then I can get back to the mechanical stuff.
