I have a pair of ricer brand 'type-s' blue LED mini-spotlights, that I shine on my speedo and gas guage so I can actually read them at night. If I had a stick, I'd probley have an 8-ball shifter too.

No fuzzy dice (although I think they're cool). I don't want to give the "fuzz" any reason to pull me over. I do have a "Remove before takeoff" red tag on the dash.

From 8trackheaven.com,

Whatever the details of Lear's selling job, the keys to its spectacular
success seems to have been the backing of both Ford and the recording
industry. After getting RCA Victor to commit to the mass production of
its catalog on Lear Jet 8-tracks, Ford agreed to offer the players as
optional equipment on 1966 models. The response, in one Ford
spokesman's word, "was more than anyone expected." 65,000 of the
players were installed that year alone. The machines were initially
manufactured by Ford's electronics supplier: the firm that had
pioneered the mass produced auto radio or "motor victrola" -- Motorola.

I have a bright green (like the dash lights) beanie cat on the dash and 2 beanie ponies on the package tray. But I'm a girl so it's okay.

I have a very old but mint, first model Escort radar detector in my 71. It beeps everytime I pass a convenience store, but no matter, I can't hear it anyway. Trying to be somewhat period correct, but it isn't working.

If anybody likes it, here is one for sale for $1 on eBay.

my 64 Tbird had a 8 track. My 289 CC had a 8 track. I have probably 50 8 track tapes. Favorites are Jimi Hendricks, Doors and Led Zep.
