Brief Description:  Center Console Vinyl Overlay

Applied some of the remaining vinyl overlay to the center console so it will match the instrument panel. Prior to this, I had painted the center console with a gray primer paint in case the vinyl didn't adhere well though the bend in the console. Turns out this was not a problem.

Once the vinyl was applied, I carved away at all the openings. The good news is re-drilling through the holes from the back side of the console made nice clean edges for all the drill-bit-sized holes. For the larger step bit-sized holes I just used my sharp cutting blade and while not perfect, they will look fine once the various switches and indicators are installed.

I also took the time to test out the electonic fuel selector. The selector only comes with a switch, but I want an indicator (besides switch position) to remind me of which tank I have selected. I purchased 2 small green LED lamps and tested out how to wire them up to the fuel selector switch by connecting everything to my 14 amp power supply. No surpises here.
