Hi,

I have just had the dash board re-veneered by london Carriage Craft (great job btw) but in doing so they removed all the bolts on the back of the dash!

I'm now a bit stuck on how to glue the bolts back onto the dash in the correct postions.

Its a '96 Griff 500 - anyone had a similar problem ? Is there any template available ? Any suggestions ?

If my memory serves me correctly:

4 of the 5 bolts are there to hold the button assemblies on.

I (very gently!!) clamped the button strip thingy in place as a marker and then glued the bolts back in place.

The 5th is to hold the left hand side of the dash on (using a large washer and wingnut) It doesn't really matter where this goes as long as it is near the top and can be reached through the heater vent hole.

Not a great pic but may help second one down



one either end of the buttons to hold them to the dash. Not sure but there may be another one just above the vent that a wingnut and washer goes on to hold the dash in.
