Default Cossie dashboard fittment.


Can I have your thoughts on this.
If you look at the pic where the dashboard meets the screen
The dash looks buckled dips low where it's bolted.

It just dont seem right.

What at your dashboards like.
Cheers

They normally do sag between the screw fixings but yours looks asif it's got a big dent just above the ecu cover or does it just appear this way in the pics?

Seems everything sags on a saph.

Hi
yes that's just how the pic has been taken but I see what you mean.
Mine seems to have sagged where it's bolted and not between the bolt holes.
I bet there all the same so will be wasting my time hunting for a new one.
