Yesterday I treated myself to a new carbon fibre dashboard for my car as my old plastic one has seen better days. It’s had the original Sierra clocks which I then removed and replaced with a digital speedo. So today after fixing my rear indicator which gave up yesterday I trimmed the new one to fit. I’ve just got to fit it all properly and tidy a few bits up but basically it’s done.
I was going to add some pics but it won’t work at the moment

Re: Dashboard
Sounds good, is it much lighter than the original or is it just better looking?

It might be a bit lighter but I done it more to make it look better, the old dash was scratched and marked and also had a big piece covering the old speedo hole.
