All things being equal, I'll have all the parts for a soft-line approach, if I see any problems, I may upgrade to the hard line. Thanks again, really appreciate the quick response and the great pics!
When I install my dash ( and I plan to do it this spring/summer) I plan to do a build thread for the dash install cause I also have speedwarning on my dash, and will to be hoking that up as well.
