yes i know its chav, but yellow leatherette is out of my budget, this whole dash cost me £12 me door cards will be the same :) the yellow light is me oil warning bulb, and i want the red one to become a shift light if there is a kit you can get or summit. the other gauges will be boost, oil preasure, water temp. me center consol will have be ignition button, charge air temp and ancillaries ie fuel pump etc etc.

just thought i would show you guys see what you think :) i do need pics of the rear of genuine dash's so i can see how they fix at the top, i got the bottom sortid.

Hi,
Mmm, shiney :)
IIRC the genuine dashes have a rubber coated plastic leg that wedges against the top dashrail.
Cheers,
