calebz Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 Are you talking about the part with the buttons or the part under the dash that actually makes it all work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scrub2k Posted October 3, 2003 Author Share Posted October 3, 2003 The Part With the Buttons, I Moved Mine Down to where the Ashtray was, since i dont smoke i took out the ashtray I Just Need to Find a way to attach it somehow, the tabs that the screws go into on it were broken off when i got the car so i hafta figure something out, i thought about getting a new box out of another car but ont wanna rewire it just for 2 tabs :-\ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 I Just Need to Find a way to attach it somehow Thats the beauty of the way I did it.. all the parts are stock soob.. 88 GL-10 trip computer was mounted down below.. so I just got all the mounting stuff from an 88 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
electryc_monk Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 heheheh OR you might look at the place i have now... granted it was a temperary fix but, I was wondering about sticking it there as I too have removed the "ashtray" hmmmmmm maybe I'll put a simple plate down there and then drill a single hole for the starter-interupt too. http://www.geocities.com/electryc_monk/cd6-27.jpg or this view of the same http://www.geocities.com/electryc_monk/cd6-24.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
soobme Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 So to use that plate from the '88 it's just a bolt in?!? That is to eazy! I would love to have my TC back in the car and working! I know what I'm looking for next time @ the yard:banana: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted October 3, 2003 Share Posted October 3, 2003 It will bolt right in, but you have to cut out some of the back of the cubbyhole for clearance for the box, or use the console piece from the 88.. also, the wires a little too short to just move the box down, so I had to reroute the wires a little, and relocate the actual control box under the dash(behind the glove compartment.. sounds a lot more complicated than it really is.

Flowmastered87GL Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 IF my car used a trip computer... I could never stick it down there (in front of the shifter, below the stereo AND ashtray...) that space is good for so much extra parts storage: current inventory: Brand spanking new EA82 radiator petcock and the fasterners to attach an EA82 black rubber chin spoiler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calebz Posted October 4, 2003 Share Posted October 4, 2003 Well mike, we are very glad that you don't have a trip computer to deal with. all of that terrible storage loss would be tragic:brolleye: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
