When I bought my truck it had no winshield frame and the hinges had been cut off. I planned on using a/c, so I decided to put a fixed windshield in. That left me with the crankhandle hole in the dash.

I decided to install a cigarette lighter/charging port in the hole. I didnt like the look of a cigarette lighter hanging out of the dash. There was an old thermometer screwed into the header panel when I bought the truck. I took it apart and cleaned it up, I then took apart an old lighter plug and mounted it to the back of the thermometer. Now the hole is filled with the thermo, and I just remove it if I need to use the plug to charge my phone. I put a couple pics of it here,

From what I can see it's pretty cool. The pictures are too small to see well. I'm assuming you used a phone camera? The higher resolution picture you upload the larger it displays to those trying to view it. A low resolution phone camera uploads small pictures like those in your link. You'll have more people admiring your work if they can see it.

Boy, I'd like to see a clear shot of that thermometer. I really like the face and needle on it, it looks like Captain Nemo owned it.

They are normal size but fuzzy pictures to me. I snooped through the whole album, some very creative stuff you are doing there.

Tiny, maybe you are stuck on photobucket mobile, look for a cookie with mobile and photobucket in the name and delete it.

Hey guys,

I have a really cheap camera, that combined with poor lighting in the shed is giving me not very good photos. I will have my friend shoot some photos with his camera soon and I will replace the bad ones on photobucket.

I am new to all this photosharing and dont use a camera much at all. In fact I bought my first computer just this year. Dont the thumbnails on photobucket get bigger when you click on them?

Thanks for the heads upabout the photos,

Thirtyniner
