WOO HOO...progress...not much.

UPDATE::: DROVE IT TO WORK TODAY !!
Got her registered yesterday and will get the inspection done at lunch. F'in speedo quite working again Guess I need to pull the tail BACK off of the trans and make sure the gear in on completely and not broke.
Now I get to figure out what's up with the backup lights.

Finally put in my new dome light and got it working with the switch. Then I thought how nice it would be to have it come on when I open the door. So, now it does, at least the driver side does. I had to order the switch for the other side but will install it today.
Got the gear indicator light working. I didn't know it was a fiber optic line.
Also, got defrost hoses hooked up and working. Which, identified the cause to another problem, the glove box not opening on it's own when the button is pushed. Found that the "spring" was not on the bottom lip of the opening, but under it. Removed the door and re-installed and now it works great.
Also, FINALLY got the speedo working. Removed, cleaned and powder grafite everything.
However, found other things that need attention.
1) Therm housing is leaking
2) So is the over flow bottle (cracked)
3) Fan only has med and high
4) Backup lights don't come on (switch I'm thinking)
