That looks really good!
I was considering this for mine either using a mk1 or mk2 dash. mk2 is easier to cut so you can still use the heater controls etc.

definately looks motorsport!
You inspired me as said on page 1 and I've got this far. Gonna keep the matrix to help keep the screen clear. Not bothered about the weight - will just add more boost! lmao

Gonna make up some cardboard templates for the end piece and a black for the vent ducting. Will then wrap the end piece in some light grey vinyl from the back of a seat - perfect match for the dash.
Might also chop down the other bit to see if it works slapping the end on with the vent.
