dunno who it belongs to, but it shouldn't be too hard to make your own. Was intending to something similar when the time comes.

There was an article in Max Power some time ago that told the reader how to build a show audio install. They used mdf rings to make a buck for the speaker pods, followed with layer upon layer of filler. Could do the same for the dials.





A bit of slapstick never hurt anyone.

u said bad words! max power! noooooo!

lol, only thing i have against using lumps of mdf and filler is the weight of the stuff.

might just have to resort to some genuine imitation carbon fibre and keep it flat

You could just make yourself buck in the same way, then make yourself a fiberglass mould. Would just end up as a fiberglass dash, or you may be able to get a specialist to make it from C/F using your mdf bits. Just a thought.

I was talking to the guy before he went on the track at Donnington. He made the buck himself and he got a fibreglasser to make it. I'm sure he said he got a few of them made. He's got the Indy up for sale in Which Kit Car for over £12000!
I must add its very high specification

I'm sure that is the same one that MK used to make a while ago. They had the MK logo on it too, we were going to get one but they only did carbon fibre lookalike.

Hi,
I think they call the guy Martin. I am fairly sure he only had four dash's made, I don't think there are any left, Unless he has had some more made. If his car is up for sale there should be a contact number with the the advert

IIRC his name is Martin Hurt. I will try and dig out his phone number.
