thanks that makes life easier

 

from this mess

 

to this

that looks tidier but now you've lost the soundtrack of the squeeks and creeks from the dash, that make a 205 what it is

[carlh.1 8]

not when the dial pod used to bounce off into my lap because of 22 year old plastic clips, besides all i want to here is the dump valve from the turbo conversion im nearly finished with

[axnutty 10]

Whats the fit like between screen and dash then?

[carlh.1 8]

cut it to fit screen, then fit a small rubber seal that fits tight to the windscreen seal, perfect in width just covers half the door speakers,

That looks a nice tidy fit, what about the lower bottom part of it, what are you going to do with that?

 

Id of though it would have been a smaller dash.

 

Does all the speedo an electris work ok?

Looks cool, i'm suprised! I suppose a 106 dash would fit too?

[carlh.1 8]

i'm going to get hold of the hower part of a saxo dash and see how that fits. I got the dash of a mate for free so all the parts wernt there, if not i'll use the original lower part of dash.

 

ive kept the standard 205 dials for the minute, and fit the saxo curved surround. Its just lost the very top corner of the oil pressre gauge. eventually it will have a digi dash fitted, but thats all down to if the bank manager stays my mate!

While im not sure i like the dash...it does look like its well done.

 

Good job

Did you manage to fit the dash bottom section?

If so any pics?

[mattw 2]

Looks good, would be interested to see a 106 dash in a 205. Might look better as its more 'angular' in contrast to the saxo's sweeping lines?

Any more progress with the saxo dash?

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

I have fitted the 106 phase 1 dash into the pugster. Almost a straight fit.

 

[MrG 3]

another phase 1 loses its basics

 

anyhow well done on the swap.

[hispetdog 0]

should have fitted a ph2 dash cant beat that design!

[Hilgie 16 2 Cars]

I like the phase 1 dash as the phase 2 dash is far too rounded and curvy for a 205.

Have to say that the saxo dash fit looks amazing!! Is is realy as good as it looks,or do the pics hide horrendous gaps or sumsuch?

[carlh.1 8]

finally got around to finishing the dash, the only gaps are where the shape of the dash were it meets the door, but thats only 10mm and i can live with that.

 

 

 

 

 

just need the ecu to turn up and it will be back on the road for the 2 weeks british summer!

[Baz 421]

Tidier than i expected!

[carlh.1 8]

thanks, did you think it would be a shed?
