Relocated resistor block. Since the resistance coils were originally located inside the "suitcase" thing under the hood, I concluded that they're supposed to be exposed to constant airflow, so I stuck them here in the plenum inside the car.

Wires to the back of the switches. I'm bad about making really messy "Y" connections that look like they'll fall apart and start a fire at any time, so I got an extra box of female spade connectors made for larger wire (the yellow ones) and tried to...

I used the old thin-gauge aluminum mockup panel as a template and traced the holes and outline onto this sturdier 16-gauge steel. I actually scribed a perpendicular and used that to make exact mirror images (as best I could) in hopes of eliminating ...

And here's a front view. I used 180 grit on the DA sander to burnish the surface a little, and I'm planning on squirting it with some black semigloss prior to final installation.

Started filming with car on fast idle. Brought it down, two quick revs, and shutoff. Some torqueover visible. 39 seconds.

Startup from inside the car, went out under the hood, rev from underhood, then back inside and shutoff. I've been starting the car with a pushbutton for so long this is a big deal for me! 25 seconds.

Startup, idle, revs, more idle, and shutoff from rear quarter view. Image quality is low for smaller file size. Torqueover is there, but hard to see due to image resolution. 52 seconds.
