clock set ups without dash? pics?
as above, due to the door bars of my roll cage my dash would look a mess if i were to trim it to make it fit so thinking of maybe a half dash and gauges across the bar across the bulkhead of the cage? just wondering what people do with no dashes? any nice options?

Search for chris fosters old old fiesta as im sure he had that set up,,,,, looks wank IMO and i prefer ( though still hate) Xrt-Si's in his white fiesta where they was all around the steering wheel
personally i would consider getting another dash, cutting it about to fit and flocking it ( im about to get a "flocker" btw )

mine i trimmed the around so could still use the original shape dash
very time consumming
then flocked it
if i was to do it all again i would look at more of a touring car set up
just the dash display coming off the coloum

ok ill rephrase that, ill listen to the exhaust notes instead of radio, the bumpy ride supplying the bass and dump valve doing the trebble (i can live with that lol) but thought of looking at bars infront of me due to no dash seems a bit pikey and ain liking that one lol

paul you aint gonna be using it as a daily driver mate so dont worry about it
im gonna be flocking my impreza dash as it makes the screen cleaner to look through due to the lack of glare
