    I get it, Andrew. I wore my new "NO ! My truck is not done yet !" T-shirt to the cruise in last night. Saved me from explaining to at least a couple folks.........

    Ashtray Light?

    It plugs into the upper right inside of the dash panel (if you are looking at it from the seat) like a dash bulb socket ?? The "socket" is in the red circle. (photo below)

    LMC Parts

    I've had good luck with the stuff I've bought from LMC. They have a fair amount of items made "overseas." I try to find the most things at the same place so I don't have shipping fees from several places. Classic Parts has a better shipping cost than LMC, unless it's oversized, then it's more...

    best place to buy a door

    https://www.autometaldirect.com/index.php Auto Metal Direct. They are north of Atlanta. If you're in AL, go pick it up and save the freight (of course you'd spend it in gas) TotallyHucked is the guy to ask ...........

    I said the film was on the bezel, I meant to say the aluminum front bezel "trim". I cleaned the (black) bezel, then sprayed it semi-gloss Rustoleum then clear. I used a "Molotow Liquid Chrome" pen to carefully repaint the silver rings around the gauges and "Lights" letters.
