Hi guys,

 

I don't suppose anyone has an accurate cad drawing of a dash they can send me? I don't mind if it's 2 or 3 clock or whatever I'm just after the correct shape so I can add some holes for my gages and get it laser cut. 

 

Cheers

 

James

I've punched the dimensions from one of the above mentioned dashes and punched the outer "blank" into solidworks if you want I can bosh out a stp file or edrawings file?

Managed to attach the PDF file that I believe I downloaded from The Scottish Mini Forum some time ago?

 

If you are desperate for an AutoCAD file let me know and I will redraw it?

Oops sorry just replied to your pm and then realised the template is on here. That's super, I'll redraw it in cad from those dimensions.

No that wasn't me, I know of a few local silver minis so probably one of those.

Cheers
James

I won't be drawing the triple clocks in the dash as I'm designing my own layout using autometer gauges and having a bulkhead box too. I can send just the outline once I've drawn it though. I'll let you know when I've drawn it and you guys can pm me email addresses
