Aluminium dashboards

[RTZ62]

Hi, although I'm new to Pistonheads, I'm an old hand with fast cars.

I am (hopefully) purchasing a Chimera this weekend, but have seen various ones advertised on PistinHeads with aluminium dasboards.
I've looked on the Leven site, but to no avail, and also tried putting 'TVR aluminium dashboard' in my search engine, again with no result.

Does anyone know where I can purchase one online, but it must be good quality (not a cheap effort).

Thanks

Leven certainly do them, try calling. I know there are various configs over the years and maybe they don't list on-line due to the variations

Might be because they're not aluminium, but stainless steel. Leven still do them AFAIK.

Yep, Leven is the place to get one from.

Here's mine...

try the "new products" bit on the homepage (scroll down, and down, and a bit more)

Stainless Steel Dash Panels
Replacement panels that update the interior.

Ideal replacements for flaking wood and at the same time updating the interior. Manufactured in Stainless Steel for durability. The 'Check' pattern looks like a modern day metal carbon fibre and picks up the interior colour of the trim. The small check suits the size of the dashboard and while being different is not too outrageous.
Sold in sets of main panel and the radio/auxiliary panel. Fitting is easy, and takes about 8 hours. Alternatively we have a number of dealers who can provide a competitively priced fitting service if preferred, call for details. We have most car models (Chimaera/Griffith/Cerbera) available ex-stock.Prices are for Griffith/Chimaera £127.66 + VAT + £7.50 next working day delivery, Cerbera £102.13 + VAT + £6.50 next working day delivery.

Cheers
Matt

TVR Chimaera Pages also has a guide to removing the dash which you'll find handy for doing the switch...
