I like the factory moon roof louver. Mine has started to crack. I need to find away to take it out and replace it. I've seen a T-bird in a junkyard in TX that has a real nice louver...(it red, but I'll repaint it)

Nice job on the FP gauge! I take it the other items are a voltmeter and your boost controller?

Nice repair job, too.
