Title: new dashboard
Post by: Vam on January 20, 2005, 09:43:13
Hello

My Dash board is a bit cracked in places, and I've found one on eBay from a 90, 1987. thats supposed to be in pretty good nick.

Would it fit my 110 1986, and how easy are they to put in?

Is it a case of just screwing in in carefully or would there be any wiring involved.


Or to be really technical, could I do any damage replacing it  :wink:

PS the silver paint has worked a treat on the rear window demister Thanks!

Which bit of the dash are you talking about ? There is an upper and a lower part... and then there is the instrument pod.

The pod is OK if you make note of what goes where.
The upper dash isn't too bad, just takes a bit of time
The lower dash is a much bigger job

which bit of the dash is it ?

If its the top then there are half a dozen screws then it just lifts out.

If its the whole thing it's goning to be more tricky - I havn't gone that far so can't comment.

It's the complete unit apparently 'everything cept the dials and the clocks'

No pictures though  Item number: 7128102388  
 
I was just thinking of replacing the top bit, as thats the only bit that busted

Yesterday seemed a bargain at £5.00 the lot,  And worth a try, though it's gone up to £20 now

Hmmmmmm

Thanks  for the info guys,

 It looks like 2 other bidders are fighting it out, and there's not really enough info from seller to make me want to go for it

The cracks aren't bad bad enough to fork out £30 +  for. :twisted:

At a fiver it looked like a good deal though   :wink:

Thanks for the help
