They fit the grille perfectly, and I only had to trim the metal dash frame maybe 3/4" of an inch. top view 6272430-DSC00020.JPG (116 downloads)

Using the factory Hemi coil mount was out of the question. So, I'm using a Accell coil mounted on the rear/ side of the intake, similar to a 440 six pack mounting . Fabbed up a bracket yesterday with some leftover 18 gauge stainless and a bench vise. It's not super pretty, but once painted and the coil is mounted. You not going to see it anyway. 6272445-DSC00135.JPG (125 downloads)

I felt it looked very close to the original satin chrome look of the original hsgs.

My customer decided not to wait on the upcoming new interior trim panels. So, I cleaned, cleaned and cleaned again all 4 of the originals. dyed them with Sems brand vinyl dye with an adhesion promotor. Should there be a problem later one, he may re-evaluate the new ones. I think they came out great, these were not perfect, but very nice used originls. Ft's 6307533-124.JPG (103 downloads) Last edited by gtx6970; 11/18/10 09:51 AM.
