Alright lads and lasses.
Im rebuilding the dash in a more race style - dont like the "proper" dash set up and as im going GPS/ digital with the speedo - i can ditch the analogue clocks too.
So, clean slate - blank canvas.
1991 mark 3 by the way.
Couple of questions for the tech savvy set.
Some of the purists will no doubt scoff and mock and ask why oh why, but im trying to create something new and 21st century for my car, helpful answers appreciated.
1) Can i scrap the old 4 x rocker switches and replace them with toggles? - saw a thread some time ago with this on but it didnt really answer the question.
I have a misguided idea that provided the toggles are the same pole and position as the rockers, this can be done like for like almost with just new connectors.?
If anyone has a wiring diagram or experience of doing exactly what im on about that would be realy helpful, the haynes wiring diagrams are not helpful....i spat my tea out when i first opened the book on wiring diagrams.....But they are very pretty.
2) Can i make the wiper stalk a toggle switch also?
3) Im fitting a secret battery cut off in line with a flashy "aircraft" style push start - can this be done in such a way so i can do away with the key entirely? the battery cut off would be hidden under the dash or somewhere and would prevent power reaching the switch so billy burglar would be deterred on the fact they cant get to, or see any of the ignition wires.
thanks guys
