it'll certainly do the job
looks like toggle switches though, if the car's not already SVAd, could cause a problem?

Is it going to pass the radius test with mr. SVA?
How hard can it be?

toggle switches are in the exempt zone so think they will pass and the edges of speedo are flush with vinyl

niuce job, as you say for the first effort.
consider it the mk1 version. why, did you place the 2 clocks in the narrower section when there is more room for them above the water temp/fule gauge
clock?
that would be the mk II version.

The ergonomic dash of the landy must be a delight then?....
what you been up to here, mine never had that many gauges

Why the odd shape cut out around the steering column area?

Surprised that the toggle switches fall in the exempt zone i thought this only applied to instruments behind or within a small 127mm zone around the
steering wheel

Those switches
I'm sure the toggle switches are in the exemption zone. The zone only applies around the steering wheel.
