Ooooohhhhh have you got your new one ready for installing John ?

[jdl_1967]

I've let you down Davy, I've just bought an anthracite dash and trim bits. I'll be painting the rev counter surround and steering wheel inserts to match. Will look like the below minus the 2 spoke wheel, unless of course I make a dogs dinner of the fitting.

[EcosseGP]

Oh no way John I was looking forward to seeing your masterpiece !

[jdl_1967]

Kids at primary school can paint better than me, it would have been no masterpiece

Reduced to £35

Dash out, a lot easier than I thought it would be, about 90 minutes start to finish with the new dash below fitted. I also swapped the centre console tubes, cup holder, gear gaiter surround and Harman Kardon tweeter / handle surrounds.

Just need to paint the Rev counter surround and wheel inserts the same colour as the dash, BMW's anthracite, does anyone know the paint code please?

[EcosseGP]

Oh no more painting John ? I'm not too sure that the interior may have a code ..
I'll check and see what I can find out :)

[jdl_1967]

Thanks Davy

[Craig]

Looks better John:)

I'd love this in the GP after seeing Eddie's dash.
It'd just end up in a box in the garage I fear as there's no way I'd attempt to trash my dashboard by removing it.

....my technical skills are rather limited to say the least.

...to Infinity and beyond !!!

[EcosseGP]

Problem is Pete you couldn't fit it in the GP without a bit of messing about and changing airbags as its a 5 piece .. Phew I've saved you a few quid for change !!

[Mon the fish]

You can put pre onto a post - facelift, as the airbag comes out the top. Can't do it the other way around
