lovatt Posted November 25, 2005 Share Posted November 25, 2005 not a nice job is it mate ! screen can stop in easy Chris do yourself a favour and do the heater matrix while your there ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprasport Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 took about 2 hours, but considering everything else was allready out not good, worst were wiring looms attached at back (everywhere) and actually getting it out which meant handbrake, gear shift, and lights/washer levers etc. windscreen stopped in, absolutely dreading putting it back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Suprachargedtt Posted November 26, 2005 Share Posted November 26, 2005 Ive always fancied my dash out to be colour coded etc but i havent the patience to do it myself, and a bit costly to have done, id be interested to see the final result Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliot Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 I've had some crap stuck to my dash at some point which has left a big mark, so I'd love to change mine for a decent one but it looks such a big job I've never thought about it! Anyone offering a change over service? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
suprasport Posted November 27, 2005 Author Share Posted November 27, 2005 colouring the dash is easy but taking it in and out would cost a fortune, lot of man hours, you can get a colour dye though, and maybe you could leave dash in for that but you would be limited to colours, i mixed paint to get exact match on leather. not 100% convinced about holding upto scratches ect yet either on the vinyl, done some test pieces and they were pretty tough but see what time does to it. fingers crossed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suprachargedtt Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 cant find anyone that has colour coded...
