Part of the process to upgrade my car I wanted to build a custom dashboard. Instead of mocking around customizing the existing one, I’ve decided to go with a carbon-dash. It will be built with one or two big carbon-plates on which I will arrange all my gauges and switches.
Pretty easy job to disconnect the wiring harness from the dash, after that I went a head and disassembled the gauges and switches from the other parts connected to the dash.
Speedometer, rev counter, temp, gas, etc. was removed from the dashboard plastic. Not sure if I’m willing to further modify this assembly, will probably just fit it onto my new dashboard like it is.
Wires, switches, dimmers … they will all have a new life soon :-)
When the disassembly was complete, I tried to see how the crossbar looked back on the car. I have to make sure that the new roll-cage doesn’t create problems fitting it back on.
Until next time, be safe!
