Thumbs up Alloy dash *****

Another brand new product made by us here on scoobynet first!



Just finished off the first set today for my Bug..... these will look even better if we make them up in a larger batch on a cnc as these were turned by hand.... and of course any colour .

If I get enough interest I will do them for £45 inc vat delivery and any choice of colour

how do you get the ***** off in the first place and how will this stay on in its place?

Hi,

When you remove the front dash cover they pop off quite easy. They stay in place because the inside of the back of the **** is milled out the same as the standard one

I've had some of them in my car for ages.

The fit is crap, but they were cheap as chips off fleabay.

Might be able to find you a heater control panel for a classic Chris, I'll let you know.

Have you managed to retain the light indicator to match the original Chris.

very intrested... but as before £45 seems too much. im sure you'd make a killing if they were more like £25.....

Hi,

Will see what I can do for the price. They really are £30 as I have included vat, anodising and delivery in the total so it's not really a bad price..

This was the first set I made which did take a couple of hours to get the fitment right

They look good!
Let me know if you sort some classic ones, do they still have the light bit on them?
So you can see where your heater is in the dark?

Cheers
