Interior Dash Changes
Does anyone know anywhere that changes dashboards?

I don't really know how to word it but as a few of you know, I pretty much have no glove box and want something doing with it as it's pointless. I also saw a Ka at Donny that had a screen moulded in to the dash. Well I want to do a similar type of thing but have no idea where I could get it done or how much it would cost. Tried looking on the internet but have had no joy.

Also want a couple of other things doing to the dash at the same time, possibly covering the minging greyness with the same leather as my door cards.

Below is a picture of the dashboard last year. It's changed a bit now but you get the general jist of things.

Thanks in advance.

RE: Interior Dash Changes
For the screen, why not have a ride to a body shop im sure they could make somthing like that and mould it in, or have a word with alanman. As for leathering the dash, when you find somone that does it let me know as i want mine flocked.

RE: Interior Dash Changes
Hmmm dont know anyone that just does dash's etc, However..... have you not tried speaking to a bodyshop? im sure most places that have done modified cars etc could mould in tv's / playstations or whatever else into a dash. just a thaught.. hope it helps.

RE: Interior Dash Changes
Ok thanks guys, I may have a word with the bloke who did my re-spray. I was thinking about getting a red laptop where my "glove box" is but it isn't deep enough. Want a red ps2 aswell but would probly have to get one painted.

BTW, what does flocked mean? If I find someone i'll ask them at the same time. May have word with mother as she re-trimmed my uncle's old Lupo GTI seats in half leather, a dash will be harder though obviously.

RE: Interior Dash Changes
speak to a local bodyshop.. might be wise to buy a dash out a diff one and give them that so your not without a car

RE: Interior Dash Changes
I don't want fibreglass, I want it covering in the same leather as my door cards, they match my seats too.
