Hey guys and gals! Happy New year to you all!
I'm a member of the VVOC.com site but hav bought a Nova GTE with the intensions of using it as a track-day/ everyday car.
at the moe its sat on my drive with most of the interior stripped out(one seat,no rear and the dash has gone awaiting my mk2 dash but I'm having a few problems-Can't work out how to use the std seat rails to fit my bucket seats and modding the mk2 dash to fit the Astra Dig dash.
Any tips would help me out big time!
Few pics for you all to enjoy- http://s20.photobucket.com/albums/b250/animal3yk/Nova/:thumb:

welcome to novaload. About the dash, you have a mk1 dash in the pics? or are you fitted the mk2? The digi dash goes pretty much straight into the mk2 but for the mk1 its hack saw time.

[LONG~BAR]

the pics r a couple weeks old and I've changed the gear knob and the dash is out. I've got the whole lot out.
I've test fitted the dig dash n it don't seem to fit because the sun cover thingie won't fit around/over the dash. hav u anypics?

here's my other car http://s20.photobucket.com/albums/b250/animal3yk/

Glad to see another project underway.

I would sort out the rust situations in the boot, rear wing and front wings before the tin worm sets in and makes it impossible to repair.

For the digi dash you need to cut the small legs off the bottom of the digi dash and spread out the metal brackets on the mk2 dash so that the digidash fits in.

I'm sure there is a "how to" on the web somewhere .... found it ...

Hope this helps
