I am pretty sure it can be flipped around to accommodate the RHD hot wheel roads and tracks over there ;)

Got all the windshield related stuff on... wipers, wiper motor, dash pad is back in, all except the rear view mirror really... and then I have to hook up and test the wiper motor, other than that, I am pretty good.

Last few items remaining.

wiper motor testing
Wiring clean up under dash
RPM's not working on gauge
Temp gauge is sticking on shut off and not going back down.

Other than that, I am pretty good

CB, I'm sure you know this, but make sure that wiper motor is in the "home" position before you run the wiper switch. I buckled my outer windshield dimples because I had not let the motor return top the home position before I disassembled everything. When I reassembled everything and I flipped the switch the linkages and wiper arms went nuts. Bent the inner linkage and wiper arms. Expensive and time costing mistake on my part.

Thanks... it is not hooked up yet, so I didn't even test it, but it is assembled... it is a good piece of advice.

Just realized I have no idea where I put the mirrors... hmmmm, that is a project for tonight.
Also, the rear view kit attachment should be here in a couple days.... so, it is a good angle to compare the original master plan.
I had to look it up tot see if it had side steps and it does... which is cool as they should be back next week... got the grip tape yesterday.

That was originally on there, all except the end caps, I had to find them and it took a lot of time and $$$...
