Nice retro look

it'll certainly do the job

looks like toggle switches though, if the car's not already SVAd, could cause a problem?

Well done, Looks realy smart!
Is it going to pass the radius test with mr. SVA?

toggle switches are in the exempt zone so think they will pass and the edges of speedo are flush with vinyl

Very nice

top job, have you tried it in the car yet to see what it looks like?

that's a nice tidy job, I'd have been pleased with that if I'd done it myself

well done

niuce job, as you say for the first effort.

consider it the mk1 version. why, did you place the 2 clocks in the narrower section when there is more room for them above the water temp/fule gauge clock?

that would be the mk II version.

Land Rover dash LED "bulbs"

Look good

Why the odd shape cut out around the steering column area?

Surprised that the toggle switches fall in the exempt zone i thought this only applied to instruments behind or within a small 127mm zone around the steering wheel

Maybe a lorry steering wheel

I'm sure the toggle switches are in the exemption zone. The zone only applies around the steering wheel.

the pic here shows the dash in place. the 127mm is just outside the left hand toggle




Description

looking good but I think that blue hose may need a few more clips. m.

Not quite the 'Spirit of Ecstasy' is it, but I do like the mug.
