    Every custom dash seems to look wrong around the air vent area and above.

    I agree ^^^. I am in the process of making a longdasc fascia that runs from the airvents/radio end to the r/h dash cluster end. Tossing up whether to french the gauges in or not, should look different.

    Just found another dash on this site..

    I have been playing around with my custom gauge mount in my VB. Still need to lay some vinyl on the MDF panel but you get the idea.

    I want to know why people insist on using mph speedo's ? I know they are made more available but there is kph available in most colors.

    that looks pretty clean for a custom dash. agree with 180sc though, why mph? is it going to be a drag/track only car?
