hi guys

got bored, got metal , made mini stuff. that is how my last day on engineering degree dissitation went.

I made a rally pod thing, for my dash to look like the genuine rally ones that house the clocks, fuses , switches etc. i made it out of aluminium and used a box folder to just fold it up. just want opinions really on what i have done drastically wrong or well etc even though it does fit and look cool it may be wrong.

Cheers

ted

looks good, nothing wrong there mate but don't forget, it's ok to squeeze something in, but much harder to get it out again... those lips on the back might cause you some grief.

they will have holes in and then be self tappered onto the dash rail. I saw these fitted the other day in this way , is this incorrect??

And Yes, Superted. I believe this is the way they were originally fitted ;)
