I quite like that idea as I've been thinking along those lines myself, looks nicley made as well, but agree with the wooden ashtray comments, need to keep a bit of contrast bling with the standard ashtrays, or if you are a non smoker replace with some other bling switches or auxillary guages maybe, An engine starting button from an Aston!! would be nice to see it sweep up towards the switch panel to hold a radio and the choke and reserve pulls, the possibilities are endless...
look forward to the installation,
Scott
