So let me get this right, and this isnt me being ar*ey by the way, but, you're having a full respray, custom carpets and seatbelts. No doubt some fancy pants seats... and your making your own dash? You do know these things are guaranteed not to fit?
Which bits? all of them?
The dash. Ive never seen a homegrown version fit yet. Also the clocks point straight ahead, no upsweep, so you cant se where the needles are when theyre pointing upward. Im not having a go or anything, just find it a bit strange that your spendings lots of money on all the other stuff, but for the sake of an extra hundred quid or so you could buy a proper dash.
I want to make the dash my own creation, like the rest of the car, if i spend a few hundred as you put it on a dash then its not my creation is it and im bound to see another just like it. Im an individual person, and extrovert. I will make the dash perfect, I am very creative and to be honest after all the toils so far with the car, the dash is no problem for me. Even custom dashes dont fit, the one that was in the car when i bought it was a custom consoles and the fit was not good at all, she paid £140 for it as well.
I remember people slagging off the flip front when i bought it saying it would never fit etc etc, but its actually perfect, just took a little time and patience and it was all sorted.
Considering the dash cost £10 if its a disaster then its no loss really is it and i would have enjoyed the challenge anyway.
I thank you for your input though but i can think of better ways to spend another £200. KC
