OMG, very nice work on the Roadster. I also live in SD and would love to see it in person sometime. Unfortunately, I think we’ll be on a family vacation while you’re at the car show. Nonetheless, I love your mods!

Sure. I reverted back to the original instrument cluster and took out the sound for now. I want to find some better speakers. Its not much but its all cool. I went with a carbon fiber top on the original instrument panel from the elise shop. I was thinking of doing the whole dash and front air conditioning and airbag cover with the carbon fiber at some point. it would fit right in. Where in SD you live?

I love downtown but used to live in OTay ranch. What u got planned for the holidays? I’m trying to get my car started it won’t move from park at the moment after they put the quick charge mod on. Know anything it might be?

Only thing i did notice is that the covers that protect the battery are not put back on, but they have no connections. Could it be the transmission control module fuse or maybe it just has some sensor that detects the battery panels are off?

On the 2.X PEM at least the high voltage access door has a mice switch that will throw an error and not go into drive if the cover is off
