where do you guys get those nice carbon dash`s from ?? also anyone got any opinions on good looking dash`s i am after inspiration as i get the feeling the carbon ones will be unjustifiably expensive. please post pics if you have em :)

that is really nice Steve, but i 8nt having carpets in etc it is going to be very race type (kinda miglia looking) which is why i want to go 4 the carbon / race look... MTM i like the carbon dash, it is similar to the miglia one, but without the clock pod... ideally i would like one with the clock pod and centerconsole to put me switches etc etc on.

be aware that you have to mount the gear shift assembly inside the car to fit curley dashs which add even more to the total cost...dont know how to post pictures so sorry on that count "Turbo's make torque, and torque makes fun"

You could try a guy called dave Kimberley. I got some fiberglass doors from him very cheep. He makes all kind of bits and bobs, basically curly copies for half the price.

Jesus Mark i remember that dash.... what the hell was my old man thinking of......as i recall he was so sick of the conversion and the hassle he had getting the engine in (this was way way way before avonbar had bulkhead boxes,,,,,and way way before anyone else had turbo`d minis in the north east) that he must have just rammed it in and made it look normallish.......by normallish i mean shite !! did you sell it on like that to Vegard or did you change it....i know you did a hell of a lot to the car before he got it though. took me ages to get me revolutions back with me cut slicks lol :)

rite this is the dash i will probably go for £75 quid it is i will mount small computer fans in the top to clear the window when it mists up as i wont have a heater matrix in the car i probably will put the speedo / rev counter in the middle (so you can see em !)

theres ultra fine wires running up and down the screen, you cant see them at all, works very well, i use it on mine as i dont run a heater and it used to be my everyday car.
