My dashboard attempt
After an original attempt and then a bit of finishing touches this is my final dash attempt. Just rear fog light switch to fit but want to source a nicer one rather than use the sierra standard unit
After seeing a couple of westfield dashboards at the newark kit car show I decided that I wanted to do some kind of thicker section to go round the edge to finish it off a bit nicer dash.jpg dash2.jpg Hope it meets with you guys approval Russ Last edited by rpjg1975 : 17th August 2012 at 07:59 PM.

I am working on mine today, what did you use to pad it? I am thinking about using a roll camping mat. Also not sure how to make the rounded bottom edge?

Spike, it is exactly that. Camping mat from morrisons for the bargain price of £3 and if when u cover the mdf u carry on with the mat and staple/stick it to the rear it gives u a nice rounded soft edge so u can get away with a better radius because it isnt solid. I stuck it to the mdf with spray adhesive but the trick is not to stick your vinyl/faux leather on the front just stick/staple it to the back so you don't get any creases!
Voucht, The gauges are custom made ones from a company called greengauges on the tinterweb. I actually got the second hand from ebay but they had never been fitted. Last edited by rpjg1975 : 18th August 2012 at 03:54 PM.
