I'm in the process of fitting the new dash as supplied by Andy-W - nice job BTW!

Anyway, I have the dash top off and have removed most of the instruments but it looks like the indicator lights need to be de-soldered to remove them and then re-soldered back onto the little circuit board - or am I missing something?

I will post some pictures when the new dash is in.

Just out of interest, how much was the dash

Someone suggested that I remove mine and use a local powder coater to refinish it. Has anyone else done that?

Cheers

Aidan

You don't really want it too shiny due to refelctions.

Dash was from andy W - I think he wants about £70.00 for dash and radio panel but could be wrong - I'll PM you his contact details.

I figured out how to take the lights out - easy when you know how!
