Oooh, that's a bit politically incorrect

I'm planning to keep the dash nice and simple.
The only additional things I'm going to add are hazard and rear fog switches.

The clocks have all the tell-tale lights I need build into them, and they have a couple of little LCDs which I'm hoping I can use to display anything else I might want.

Sorry I meant to say Southall.

So if the clocks have all the lights in ie highbeam,oil,indicators and ignition they would meet the iva standards ????. Seems like the way to go, thats a lot of stuff not to have to mount.

They should meet IVA standards, they're all the right picograms and colours and presumably passed type approval in the mini, so hopefully I'll be ok!

The only thing it's missing is a rear fog tell-tale, but I'm hoping I can use a switch with that built in.

Hi skov just read your thread from start to finish, what a brilliant job so far.
I'm a new member I have just bought a part built chassis which I'm going to alter so as I can use an MX5 donor, been reading lots about it and would love to build one half as good as yours.
Keep up the good work Regards Mick.

You're too kind Mick!
Are you sure you haven't got me mixed up with someone else though
Good luck with the build.
