ive got a small amount of aluminium to construct a dash panel out of, ive allready made one, but im not happy with it really.. its a bit on the wide side and im struggling mouting it... to ANYTHING, its cable tied to crap at the mo, can anyone shed some light ? it'd be helpful thanks. will get some pics up tommora of my dash so u can see, was a quick slap up job as a test run.

Some pics would be useful, yeah! Can you not make up some sort of brackets and mount it that way?

its an empty shell pete.
i could do, but struggling to mount anything to the dash.. theres no room to get in behind to get a nut or bolt thru a hole.

oi pete, your a fkin genius man, triggered a delayed light bulb.
self tapping screws thru the brackets and a simple dash bolted to them!
why do u always overlook the logical ****, youll laugh when u see the dash ive done, its not really user friendly at all.
