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 )

 

put a watch on the roll cage?

or a little digial thing out of the way, nearer the a pillar the better

stick a pic of your dash up now as it is mate?

 

Dont know if this might give you any ideas fella

Would look pretty swish!

thats the exact problem i have and cage is very simular so may well have another look and see if i can do something like that, well spotted mate

 

head up display. Projects the images of dials/clocks onto the windscreen.
Does look cool if done right

 

Sounds expensive lol, I'm trying to calm spending lol

 

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

Look at Neil's Mk3 Fiesta next time you get a chance Bamo.

 

trouble is i would half like to keep it like a car on the inside, well arleast keep the dash in if poss lol

will check it out mate

 

what,,,,,,,, a fully stripped out, fully caged and MASSIVE door bars with buckets and harness,,,,,,, road car ????

think its been off the road and in bits for so long you forgot what a "fast road car" actually is inside

 

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

 

i know im not but i like having a dash for throwing phone on, keys in etc lol

 

aint that what your transit is for pmsl

 

yeh but thats my work horse, bm is comfortable driver/ play about car and escort is fun car lol

 

you sure,,,,, i thought the escort was car parked in a garage and never gets finished pmsl

 

nope, thats your tennis cab pmsl

 

thats buried under slick tyres at the moment pmsl

 

has it got black carpet ? mines grey and need black to go back in lol

 

yes it has thanks,,,,, actually i think ive got a black carpet spare in one of the garages though i might have thrown it, next time i feel brave ill take a butchers and see if i still have it

 

cheers mate, need to throw some carpet in before i start to cut dash back in lol
