Idiot's question but answer it anyway – image 1

Well working with a bitmap is sort of involved also. You'll need to get the .ace file for the cab in the cabview folder or wherever located to edit things like the cab background and such. Dials, throttles and clocks can be edited in the cab editor but beware it is buggy at times and has no undo feature. Always make a backup of the original file. To get the .ace to .bmp run it through makeace or TGAtool2.Looks Like a Pony Idiot's question but answer it anyway – image 2 RUNS LIKE A STALLION
