That goes under the hood as opposed to the other ones which sit on top?

You can do either or on these ones... they come with rivet bolts if you want to do it on top or you can do it from underneath... I plan on doing it underneath so it'll look like its OEM

I have some down time next few days so hopefully I can finish my system, install double din, and maybe retrofit my FX-R on. And if I'm lucky get that dang diff on

If your gonna do those ducks. I would find a hood from a junk yard. It doesn't even have to be the same color. If you don't like it or if it doesn't work you could always toss your old one back on. You know

I wish i had the 05 console BULL CRAP

I'm still waiting to see pics of your trunk box... I think it would be a good idea to get a spare hood, just to practice on if nothing else. Of course you have a talented body shop at your disposal, so whatever works! Can't wait to see the finished product.

I'm tempted to get the CF Double Din, but I don't know if it would look good with my Birdseye trim... I did a simple trunk box in mine (the one I got from you took up too much trunk space) I'll post a picture of mine soon.

nice...Here's a pic of a 1965 MB "fintail" my friends shop was repainting last year. forgot I had pics of it. I had 22k miles on the original engine, immaculate interior, and had the factory air ride suspension. I'll try and find more pics.
