If you look closely, something doesn't belong on the dash.
What do you think about it?

it might look better without the dice/radar detector/other girly stuff. clean it up and make it look all flush, and then the firebird logo might look good.

I need to get a pic of the fuzzy dice at night, they light up!
The higher one is a g-tech, the lower one is the radar detector, and the tassel is my graduation tassel.

I had dice like that. Mine actually lit up. They were cool to get some red light into the car but Im just gonna get some leds. The red dice look bad. I realized it and youll prolly come to your senses. It honestly looks how my dash used to look. High school thingy on the rear view, dice, radar detector. I would say remove the dice, tie up the graduation thing a bit higher, and maybe rewire the radar detector with a long cord so it can be hidden under the dash. Its not hard to wire it under the dash and up through the top of the dash. Theres no need to go through the roof like some say. I like the fire bird emblem though. That really gives me an idea. thx. I need to start cleaning out my interior Im lazy with empty oil etc....

the dice are hanging from the rear view mirror right? from that angle it looks like its almost hanging on the wheel.

Other side looks much better.
The only reason I had to "look closely" on the first pic is trying to focus on only one thing that didn't look right (IMO). I can't stand things blocking my vision while driving.

Ok as of now, I actually got bored of the G-Tech, so that's down. The power for the radar detector actually goes under the dash pad and into the fuse box. Maybe I'll take another pic to get a better angle of it.
