Righteo Folks,

I am going to be making my own dashboard and covering it in cream leatherette, with a matching Centre console. I am after the chrome rings for around the speedo, etc, and the chrome thing that goes around the glove box.

Now where do i start looking? Im basically just after the chrome bits to make the dashboard.

What do they use to do the edge of the centre consoles too? the chrome bits...

All help appreciated

Tom

I've been trying for ages to get the clock rings, we were missing one, eventually found someone who had a scrap dash and they kindly donated them to me. Even emailed dashboard suppliers with no luck.

The air vent rings are just too small for the normal dashes, although if you are gonna make your own you may be able to make the holes slightly small and make them fit.

Ive got my air vent rings as an edgeing for my dials.
They are actually set into the holes, Then I put this chrome trim from Halfrauds around to finish it off.
