Combing panels are done and almost ready for installation. Just have to finish the box around the shifter/ throttle box!

Here's a couple cell phone pics shot at dusk last week showing the progress on my cockpit. I'm in the process of moving the motor trim switches off the center of the dashboard and mounting new trim switches just forward of the shifter box. The center of the dash will receive a new switch panel for the cabin lights, cockpit lights, running lights, bilge pump, acc., etc.). There's a valance that will cover the shifter/throttle box that matches the carbon fiber combing panels..

Here's a couple updated cockpit photos. The cabin valance that covers the back of the dash and the radio is finished along with the wedge that covers the fuel tank fill tube. I'm currently in the process of replacing and moving switch panels on the dashboard. The shifter box valance is complete and installed along with new motor trim switches just forward of the throttles. New Eddie Marine switches for the trim tabs, Nav lights, Bilge pump & depth sounder will be installed in a carbon fiber panel mounted to the dash. Drop out bolsters are being powder coated red and new vinyl being cut for the bolsters to match the new interior!
