My MK3 Dash Conversion Thread (pics)

I but a black hole in my old one with a king size bifta

 

Looks Good Andy, bu lose the standard steering wheel (ruins the impact of the dash swap imo!)

 

looks good that.

Held in place with 'race-spec' parcel tape as well I see.

 

Looks more like High Spec Duck(quack quack) tape to me, looking good Andy, but time for a new steering wheel I think!

Alan

 

Steering wheels are expensive for what they are, lookin at near 200 for the one i want

 

Looks ace

 

Where did you put the leccy window switches?

 

Undecided as yet......

Will jus be using MK2 switch gear, prob mount them jus at the front of the centre consol opening, or on the sides (but that may be a bit awkward to actually use them


Might still mod the MK3 rear window switch to operate them though - but i dont really like the switch

 

Good work!

 

Was gonna suggest that, think I have one lying around from the 5 door

 

Nice one Andrew

 

i got a brand new set of mk3 golf 2e clocks too if you still need a set 00000 milage

 

Omg andy what have you done, another ruined mk2


Nah looks good btw

 

Steering column has now been modified and lowered


Jus gotta fit a couple nutserts to the transmission tunnel and the corssmember will be fully installed and the wiring can begin

 

well i say fair play to you nady, probably the only person on the forum who has got his ass out there in the cold weather (and id imagine its a bit ccolder up there than everwhere else ) and done some work on his project. i havent even stepped foot outside my house for the last 3 days, (only once to get essential supplies of lucosade)

 

Its not that cold actually, was 10deg the other day, and in the shed witht he space heater goin for a few hours it almost pleasant

 

Ive been doin stuff to mine

 

bollox! i've just rebuilt head and changed head gasket out in the street in the rain/sleet/snow! and tomoro morning i wil be out doing starter motor...

at least andy has a barn

 

And a nice red tractor with a mk3 dash in it

your using mk2 switches? no need, god knows where they are from but i have some after market mk3 dash switches on my mk3 dash ill get some pics tommorow if i can

they fit in the dash next to the rear screen button

also andy have you cut off the bottom of the dash to fit over the speaker pods?

that is a very good idea i dunno why i didnt think of that ill get some pics of mine up soon if i can as i still havent bothered taking any yet.
