fitting new dashboard

[adamwakeman]

I've just purchased my first TVR - ('97 chimaera 4.0) from RaceTech in Sonning Common - thanks to everyone for their advise a few weeks back. I'd like to fit a different dashboard and have seen one for sale - are they easy to fit or will I end up with bits of speedometer and fuel guages left over at the end..... (?)

Tonyrec (PH name) recently did his - do a search of his postings for info. Looks very nice. Also, my website has pics of how to get the dashtop off - not hard. Probably a bit fiddly doing the gauges, but nothing too taxing.

Hope this helps.

Welcome to the Forum.

It is quite straighforward to fit a new Dash. The main thing is to take your time and you shouldnt have a problem.

Theres always plenty of advice available on here if you happen to bump into a problem.

If you bought a red one from them with the 'modded' exhaust,don't worry about the dash, you should be standing around the back grinning at that exhaust note

yep, that's the one. only problem is that I had to go out of the country for 3 weeks the day I bought it so I am itching to get back to the UK!
