Might I suggest a late e-brake handle while you're at it?

Mmmmm leather...

The later 924S/944 had leather and foam covered e-brake handles. Its a straight bolt-in.



On my 924, I polished mine because I'm weird like that:



Make sure you adjust your e-brake shoes to be the same on both sides and adjust the handle so that it only comes up a couple of clicks and you'll be good to go.

Damn good build Ron! Keep up the hard work!

Where did you get the LED's for the dash and what part number where they?

Also Where did you get that CIS kit?

Beautiful work, btw.

If someone were to attempt an LS1 swap in a 924 chassis, what would the recommended trans be to use?

I know in the 944's they are going with the 951 trans to handle the power and torque, is there an easy swap trans for the 924 to handle the power?

I finished the majority of the interior today installing the new door cards, front speakers, and steering wheel.

I also cleaned and polished everything up, oooooooo so shiney,

New stereo will go in this weekend, but am going to hold of on the seats until I get the brakes and clutch adjusted, is nice have all the extra room to move around.

Here are some pics.

No there is not a big spot on the door card haha, just a photo spot.
Man those map pockets really suck, I hope someone has a pair for me
(hint hint)


Custom speaker spacers came out nice and allowed or use o the larger

I got the stereo installed and finished up the last of the interior work today. I also finished adjusting the clutch and bleeding the brakes. Tomorrow I'll put the wheels and front spoiler on and put it back on the ground.
