I like how you put in a single DIN dead tray in where the old HU used to be.... More functional storage. Classy looking, just enought, not too much.

Guys the mirror is from one of our sponsors so check that section (called the GT Zoom mirror) and comes in CF a many colors....

The map pocket is a decent fit and saves me time from having to build something too custom as I'm being lazy. Does the job pretty nicely to hold those 2 components and I added red led's behind the unit for a nice backlight at night.

Right now I'm working on a single fiberglass pod to hold my last gauge -Autometer Wideband O2

Ben cutting the dash is EASY - trying to make it look perfect like that with the bezel and getting 7" of depth clearance for the radio, now that requires some major skills...haha

About 40-50 hours of labor went into that dash alone

The S2k don't fit flip ups and it's hard to do a seperate lcd monitor nowadays with NAV cuz all the major brands are moving towards the All in One double din. Unless I cut the dash or place the double din where the radio is now and lose the radio door + useless vent above, i can't really have a double din. I just hate having the thought of a mod that I can't reverse.

i would be worry about people trying to steal your stuff when you're out and about away from your parked car...

but without the fake cf sticker steering S, everything is very nice looking.

Ben I didn't do these mods worrying about nonsense like that - the s2000 is my "play" car so it's not ever going to be sold. Kinda like a big R/C car that I get to play with when I'm bored....

btw you could just swap the dash out if it really becomes necessary!
