    Thanks guys - I have installed most of the interior trim molding and will be putting in the carpet in the next few days. I had to order the piece for under the rear seat from Ciadellas and it just came in today...my biggest concern is trying to install the power windows and getting them to work "correctly"! And getting the Heat/AC unit working as well...

    Looks great Troberts. Why does the interior color look so different from one pic to the next? Love that waffle pattern.

    Thanks - When I ordered my interior from Ciadellas they said they could keep the original waffle pattern just like from the factory, I thought it was a good idea so I went with it.
    The differnce in the pics colors - I think it's just because of the lighting in my garage and the shot of the cargo area is with the garage door up and without a work light. The pic of the rear seat and inside was with a work light and it does look more natural to the actual colors....

    Well I just backed her out of the garage on her "own power" to wash off all that garage dust! I have all the power window parts prepped and ready for install.....aand I can finally see the light at the end of that long tunnel! Just wanted to also say many thanks to all you guys that have taken your time to respond and answered all my questions while building my Nomad. Your knowledge and expertise has been greatly appreciated!!!

    Hey Chevynut - just finished installing the power windows and it was a piece of cake! And I have my AC/HT all ready except for the hose connections to the evaporator. For anyone else planning to install PW you might find this diagram helpful. Hope to see some of you at the nationals in BG next month....Thanks for all the help guys....
