[mr.oogieboogie]

Binacle now repainted black. Should be stripping the a pillars and painting them this evening

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well binicle painted and bottom rh side of dash now

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well a pillars done and 1st part of dash almost complete looks a little dark due to the ligjt

[Simon350S]

Looking good. Can't wait to see it all back together.

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well drivers side lower dash now sprayed

[mr.oogieboogie]

Right so rest of he dash is out. Managed to get the cover off the dash top do a good template. Put the rh dash side in just for test fit

[eeyoreish]

Is the speaker section tucked under and fixed by the screen to or does it just slide out? Mine has shrunk back so thinking of replacing it at some point...

[mr.oogieboogie]

Mine was not under the screen. But i would advise caution taking it out slowly paid off

[eeyoreish]

Ok, thanks! A job for another day but good to know,

[mr.oogieboogie]

You can always trim it with a scapal if its under the screen getting to it is the worst part.

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well leather arrived today so hopeing to have the dash cut and maybe covered i went for a perforated leather as i think it will look good as the door cards and seats have perforations in them. Had to buy a good size hide so look to have enough to do 2 or 3 dashes.

[mr.oogieboogie]

Right top of dash is covered. Finding the mount holes for the air vent can be a bugger as can getting the air vent in the right position just needs a clean get the glue off the window vent. I like the perforations. Also got the 1st piece of carpet down

[Simon350S]

Nice one. Look forward to seeing this one in the flesh at a show sometime!

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well im hopeing to have a bit more of the carpets in tomorrow

Spraying the last piece of the dash but will not have enough paint so be ordering some more monday.

[mr.oogieboogie]

So glove box almost finished. Looking at getting one side of the carpets in this weekend

[mr.oogieboogie]

Right . Got a bit of time on the car today. One side of the carpets now complete whoever decided to use the wheel arch horse hair crap wants his knackers kicking it gets every where. Im hopeing to have somemore time tomorrow and the paint has arrived for the door cards

[eeyoreish]

Starting to come together! Are you renewing the headlining too?

[mr.oogieboogie]

Yes the headlining will be black and will begin once the door cards are done

[Vanya]

That is looking fantastic! Can't wait to see the finished interior!

[mr.oogieboogie]

Cant wait to see the end of it stripping the interior is not for the faint hearted. And requires being able to discolate joints to access some nuts

[mr.oogieboogie]

Dash now in

[winners]

[red vtec]

Did you have to skive the leather down in any areas for it to fit?

[mr.oogieboogie]

Hello mark Beer. Coke or shandy sounds good. should have a bit more done this weekend.

Skiveing. No i did not need to shave the leather its about 1.5mm thick which looks the same as what was on the dash and the leather i used is used for dash boards.

All the best

[mr.oogieboogie]

Well i managed to get the back carpet in and the drivers tramsmission tunnel carpet in

So i thought i test fit the rest of the trim pieces
