well the dash's wouldnt be dirt cheap, ill have to price up how much this one cost, but here it is:

i know the top part is a bit wrinkly but that goes behind the top dash rail (no cover on it, just the metal rail if you get me?) then screws through the rail into it, then there are some brackets which hold the bottom to the lower dash rail.
its made from galvanised steel and finished in wrinkle black paint.

if people are interested, i can make them up how you like, you would have to send me the guages/lights etc so i can fit them....
