Closest thing that I can ever get to one.

I thought this was a pretty good piece of advice. Take what you will from it:
"Don't rely on motivation for anything. It is fleeting and unreliable. Discipline, however, is unyielding. Force yourself to follow through. Things are going to come up in life that get in the way of your goals but that's no reason to let them stop you completely."
-
What if you are not motivated to be disciplined?

Here's the Dash bezel off and unplugged.
Radio out,.. just plugged it back in to the system.
And despite what @MattSpeller will say,.. there were no extra parts left over.
This was just 'learning'... need to do some researching now, to find all the replacement indicator bulbs and such. Also planning to add a hard wired USB 1aH and 2aH jack to eliminate the auto adapter in now. Might even go so far as to go ahead and hard wire the 120v Inverter as well.... I mean - why not since I have it all apart.
btw: this is for @thwr

Why is your steering wheel completely upside down?
Also what prompted you to disassemble the dash?

LOL.. Steering wheel is 'upside down' as the wheels are turned one direction. Both the front marker lights were out and access to them is through the wheel well.
As for what prompted the disassemble ; Planning to replace the factory radio with a Raspberry Pi and SDR-radio ( in time) I also have a number of indicator lights that need to be replaced. I'm also looking to relocated the control head for the Kenwood d-700 radio

I might have to re-source these somewhere else (like our Viewing Room) and purchase something else.
I never even thought to look at size specs for these.

Reminds me of an old tale....
How did the USA get the "imperial" system and why are their units different? Turns out it was originally called "fuck the imperial's system" and got shortened.
PS - plz make with metric

Are you throwing a breaker labeling party? With sensible footwear required and refreshments like ginger ale?

Probably the "cool" kids are just cool because they don't burn down their homes?

Hopefully we just saved this guy's clients many thousands of dollars. The original plan was to sell them so much unnecessary gear, it was crazy.
