Looks good! How did you like doin the switches? Mine were a PITA!
They weren't too bad. Just have to make sure the switch caps are 'started' correctly, then they snap in fairly well. I was actually surprised that the housing kit came with everything I needed, inlcuding new tie wraps.

jb- make sure you have a good torx set, and a "large" flat blade jewlers screwdriver... (oxymoron there.) less than .1 wide tip. Works well to pry the old caps loose. Left side, not so bad. Right side... lots of little pieces that can get lost. Make sure you have time... they take some patience.

The tables didn't turn but I pulled up a seat with you. This is from this afternoon, thankfully I live at a little lower elevation.


Had to take a picture, my wife though I was yanking her chain being April fools day.
