By 'old style' do you mean the Mk1 dash? I will have a '98 dash, upper and lower, available as soon as I get round to fitting my new brushed stainless item.

by old style, I mean the one with three buttons on the radio panel and the slightly larger gauges.

That looks like the layout thanks Pete. Do you have the old one please?. I will post a pic of mine later

Thanks for the offer Frenchda. Yhm.

I think I might have sourced a spare lower panel but an old one of those would come in handy as well.

Sadly I threw the old dash on a skip, I was young, a new TVR owner and that was 5 years ago!

I bought the new dash panels, (stainless steel) from a guy on ebay, came complete with all new LED lights and good quality swithes, about £120 all in as he couldn't shift them at the time!

There is someone on the TVRCC forum that is going to make me a Carbon Fibre dash. He already sells the Mk2 dash and needed a pair of panels to cut the Mk1 dash. I could have posted mine off but my preference is to change the dash in one go!

Still not sure if I am going to keep the car or sell it though!

Sounds nice Graham.

Judging by your frequent and eagle eyed posting there hasn't been much change in the "mazuma" earning department!

My excuse is that I have man flu, the very worst kind, and am running at less then 50% efficiancy work wise, (dam those home offices!).

Glad it's sorted, mine is a Mk2 dash anyway. If anybody else is after a dash though, have a word with www.TVR-MADS.co.uk

Got mine from them, looks lovely and very reasonably priced smile

There is a bit going on but nothing that is going to pay the bills any time soon. I thought I had a years contract sorted but it didn't happen. New car fund could get a bashing in the next few weeks
