Starting to redo the interior
Hello all, well decided that I was not happy with a few things on my MK, such as the dashboard layout, the hockey trim pieces and a few other things,
so as the weather is bad decided to make a start and rip out the dashboard and switches to start again, here is the result of a few hours this
morning:
 
stripped dashboard
Now, want to move the dials from the centre position to above the steering wheel, as in a 'normal' car, but if I use the R1 dials it will
stick up a bit...
 
clocks 1
Now still thinking of going down the Acewell dash route, but even then it will stick up a bit if I put them above the steering wheel, so think I may
give the existing bike clocks a go first, then if I do not like them I can always get the Acewell at a later date.
Oh, also have a gear indicator and shift light to fit too...
Next job to cut the ABS sheet for the dash and go from there...

And that looks better than it did??
Wow that must of been a messy dash!
Track days ARE the best thing since sliced bread, until I get a supercharger that is!

Well, dash all done and here are a few pics (excuse the red button hanging down - a temporary start button until I get a better one). Moved the
clocks to above the steering wheel and the oil pressure gauge is now directly in the line of sight.

I am happy with the way it has turned out.....
