Replaced the headlight switch. So freakin' sick of trying to get to the knob shaft release button, so I made a permanent fix. Ripped the chrome knob off of the original shaft, re-used the chrome ring, and installed a '90 black knob. Couldn't use the black ring since it isn't deep enough for the black knob to get a bite on the shaft. Looks decent, too.
Wheelskins leather wrap installed. Color is "sand". The original leather was pretty well deteriorated, and what I found underneath was ugly. Cut the original leather off and cleaned the goop off with GOJO orange pumice hand cleaner. New leather ended up being about an inch too long. Yes, I ordered the correct size. No way was I installing over that old leather. Ended up cutting it down to size. Looks decent enough. The feel makes up for the small blemish.
Next up will probably be the doors.
