Hi guys,
Here are updates of the weekend.
New steering wheel in place. I almost had to destroy the factory one because the keyway was in a bad position. I had to drill a hole in the factory hub to acces it.
It looks great, but it's closer to the dash, I have to build a spacer to get 2-3 more centimeters.



I also wired and fired the front RGB leds. Speed of the RGB controler fade is too fast IMO, but I can choose any color I want.
I will place 2 more under rear cup holders, a 3 leds module under the dash board, and maybe one in the little hatch behind the engine dog house. I fired it around 6 pm today, with daylight, it seems powerfull and shinny.



Here is a video at daylight :

Looking good. I don't know about that particular RGB controller you linked (and I can't read the French manual), but most have an adjustment for the speed of the fade in addition to color selection.

Thanks guys.
I'm proud of it. I swear I didn't drill any hole in my boat or kill any animal to do this
I did this video to show how many colours I can get, but definatly I use it with fixed colour (pink and purple are sexy colours on the boat), my boat is not a christmas tree

Can't wait to receive the stuff to make the underwater Led spot, I'm sur you will love it, how it's simple to make and how cheap it is

Stay tuned

Hey guys. Here is one of the last update of the season, as the boat is now on the trailer, ready for winterizing.

So, as I post before, I find the new steering wheel too close to the dash. So I decided to built a freebie hub rizer. Here is how I proceed : I asked to my metal partner company to give me 20 pieces of 2mm thickness aluminium washer. As you can see, finition was average, because they use a punching machine.
I then glued all those washer together with cyanoacrylate glue.
Then I screwed it to get a solid piece and I started to hand file it. Then I polished it with the same tools I used for the TSB face and the seat feet.
Here are photos :

That's badass. What's the finished product look like? How do you like the new wheel? Pictures?

Easy and cheap

Maybe it's not the best way to rize a hub, but it's shinny and looks like factory

I failed my first attempt on the underwater led. It works but it's awful. So I have to work more on it.
