    Put my vin tag on my new dash, took apart the cluster, painted the inside white & put in LED bulbs.. Got to find a new dash speaker.. Nothing I have around will fit it. Did some other stuff too but I can't remember.

    Also found after the new leafs and everything the car still sags a little on the rear driver side.. As if something is a little bent...probably should have taken it to a chassis shop to see what's going on. Guess ill take her there one day soon..
