Phat -

What do you get with your dash m8? Are you getting all the trim bits (heater controls + air vents etc).

Are you able to get more? I don't "mind" spraying mine, but if it comes with silver detailing I'd rather buy another one and sell mine on cheap... :grin:

no unfortunatley all i get is a bare dash, but if i get the 2001 model it comes in ash black so no painting requied. then to keep the cost down ill get all the heater vents, trim surrounds etc froma breakers and spray them all silver or blue. im gonna have to get the clocks from a breakers as well [ERRR] they are WELL!! expensive (£190 just 4 the rev counter, £100 for speedo & £40 for fuel/temp guage!!!!!!!!!!! £330!!! sod that)

boyz, boyz, boyz......stop fretting about buying NEW dashboards, do a little homework and save yourself a fortune.....

1) Buy a copy of Loot/Exchange & Mart
2) Use the Internet
....and spend half an hour looking for second-hand bits. It's really not that difficult!

It only took me an hour or so to find a handful of breakers with the correct parts.....and that was over two years ago, when Mk4/Puma bits in breakers were about as rare as rocking horse sh*t!! Seriously, just phone around!!

Try using http://www.google.co.uk for starters, or http://www.loot.com, or exchangeandmart :devil:

The front seats are Recaro SRs, retrimmed in leather/alcantara.

The Puma Racing seats are Sparco items :smile:
