Hey, Greg, I spent the afternoon/night at SMB Austin and saw your beautiful beast getting vacuumed and polished, your welcome sign on the door! What a van!
I would have stuck around to congratulate you in person, but had to drive to S. Padre in one go.

Here is the switch layout.... they put it together a little differently than I had designed it, and I am glad they did. Very intuative setup.

Oh... and the big button on the Right? ...well, that is an auxiliary horn button. It plays The Eyes Of Texas ! Hook 'em!

(that was a surprise for the wife...she wanted it and did not know I found it and a place to put it)
