Looks good so far... though my personal opinion is that the dash would look better on top of the "lip" of the scuttle, rather than underneath.

No offence

tried both ways and in the end liked the look of it under the scuttle - looks better in real life -photo not very good.

main thing is it costs me less that £20 including all the dials ( except the veypor2 and one savage switch)

I put my dash on top. Then I finished the edge off with some patent (shiny) Tadpole Beading. Worked out quite nicely.

I had to put a relief in the Scuttle part to get my speedo and Rev counter in, but ended up looking fairly good.

Piccies in my archive.

2. Never take life seriously. Nobody gets out alive anyway.

Not bad for £20.
I put my dash under the scuttle also but was worried about the radius on the scuttle edge, so inserted rubber tadpole all the round.
