My upgraded dash
Since I bought the boat I have upgraded the dash with extra bezels, painted panels etc. I thought I'd share my progress.
Here is a pic of the dash when the boat was brand new. I had just uncovered it for the very first time.

Due to the silver stripe on the dash smearing, PQ sent me a set of their custom painted dash panels (n/c) and I decided to add some extra bezels and a blue wheel.

Over last winter, I decided to change the looks again. So I sent the panels back to PQ since they had all the right paint colors. I gave them some rough ideas, but let them decide on the design. So this is the final look.
Included are new headrests, Dino wheel (thanks to Too Old) and a few other minor touches.
I think it looks great.
Thanks to PQ's painters and EXCELLENT customer service.

Yup, that's exactly what it is. Keep the cell phone on one side and the FRS radio on the other. My idea. 
I got mine at Boaters World, but West Marine probably has them too. It has two suction cups that keep it in place. Mine has never come loose.
Love those new dash panels. Definitely has that NGTC look that Bill likes.
