"Function over form", "whatever works", and "I'm still WorkingOnIt" are my usual replies to others questioning my raison d’être différent, when I customize my vehicles to suit my needs; after all, it's my final project car, nobody except me and the wife rides in it, and I'm a certified redneck engineer.

I would like to have an in-dash android radio to take the place of the 8" tablet, but monitoring engine data by any means takes precedence over expensive upgrades. I still haven't touched up the exterior paint, deep-cleaned the carpet, nor recovered the worn seats, but I'm workingonit.

I don't mod my wife's car or truck, and try to keep all of our vehicles clean and running (on a limited budget, being both retired),and I promise you that I'll try not to dress up/mess up the X in the future, and limit my excesses. Or maybe not.

P.S., I do like your add-ons, but I prefer unrestricted A/C airflow on hot Texas summer days, so I didn't block any vents. Just sayin'.
