Ok. I have decided to make the CUCV my daily driver when I am at my place in Idaho. It is several miles of dirt roads to get to my place and then 30 miles of a very twisty highway. Since I will spend a considerable amount of time driving it, I need to spruce it up a bit.
I am looking to replace the following items. Mine are old, craked and have been painted with bad paint several times. I looked at the parts in LMC and they don't seem to be a good fit in many cases. Any sources for these is appreciated.
1. Dash pad. I am looking for a full replacement and not just a cover. Something that is paintable would be good. I want to do the interior in dark grey or charchoal. The one from LMC looked like it would work ok.
2. The trim plate that goes on the front of the dash pad. The ones in LMC looked like they leave an opening for something on the civi model.
3. Dash (gauge bezel). The one from LMC would not work because of the blackout light controls. What do we do about this?
4. Lens inside dash bezel. Would the one that is designed for guages work ok for us with the idiot lights?
5. Door panels. I could only find full panels. Not the half ones like CUCV's have.
Thanks guys. I hope you have some sources or ideas. I am also installing a full cage, 4" lift and new front seats with 5 point harnesses. I will be selling my CJ5 to finance this project.
