Stainless steel / Carbon dash kits??

[lewis_sharman]

Where is the best place to get them from?? Ive had a search on here but to no avail.

I really like the look of the Leven stainless dash kits but they don't appear to be selling them any more. Is this correct?

Or does anybody know another place to get a stainless or carbon fibre dash kit from?

Thanks in advance

Cheers for all the replies. I think im going to invest in a sheet of carbon fibre and cover the old one myself

Got the dash finished today. I ended up getting the Silver fibre weave from Stewarts F1 with the self adhesive 3M backing. Best of all the whole lot only cost £20!

Mine were all glued on so it was'nt too bad. Regarding the shapes though, with the radio panel i drew around the metal onto the back of the weave, and then cut it out, but this took a lot of time and wasnt perfect. I found the best way was to stick the whole sheet down, and then go around it with a new stanley blade, using the edges of the metal as the guide. This left a perfect edge and did well on all of the circles too!

If you are having truble concealing the screws, can you not get a countersink and widen the holes up a bit so the screws are flush?

fiddling with the switch brackets to get the buttons to work smoothly and not foul the dash holes...

Before i took it apart the light buttons used to do this. Luckily this time when putting them back on they did'nt take much time to line up. I have to get a new 'HOT' LED though as the old one had snapped in the dash and had never worked. Thankfully i think ive found the one i need in Maplins so i will give that a go.
