Knee Knocking

We've had the Miata fewer than 24 hours and I'm already modifying it.  The first task was removing the steering column cover (shown above), which was hitting my right knee when braking.  Sorry I don't have a before picture.

I also removed the dash panel under the steering column that was hitting my knee as well.  It doesn't look so bad from normal eye level, and remember, it doesn't have to be pretty; I just have to fit.

Weight Savings:
Steering Column Cover:  7.4 oz
Lower Dash Panel:  1 lb, 9.4 oz
