did you have to do anything in the glove box under the gauges or when it shuts it shuts fine and nothing hits anything. I really want a few more gauges like a temp volts and oil pressure. I cant stand not having those in the car.

Also were did you get the vent's at I want some

Just made a nice loom under there with clean wiring - it still opens and shuts fine (I've never really used it though).

The vents are a re-used cheap mesh wastebasket

Yet he has outdated technology for a Cell phone?

Kind of funny coming from you Thomas.... your interior pic again, please? LOL

As for the phone, you can flame me for that.... I should probably get something new soon.
That HTC looks amazing... I like my Sprint coverage, though.

Either way you look at it, HTC is the best innovator of touchscreen smartphones at this point. Besides Apple.

Quality is good, and their products arent always pretty to look at, but your glad you didnt get a Samsung or LG once you get the HTC.

Don't doubt the man's cell phone...in terms of vehicles, I don't think I'd question Garm's taste.

Nice setup as always.

I think you can get it unlocked for sprint eother that or i thnk its made for sprint.

Honestly id rather put more money into my car though, which is why i have a crappy phone.

The m520 isnt actually that bad, its a pretty big seller

Ohhhh ya

and nice gauges by the way, it looks good like always
