Yeah Custom Consoles, I was so stoked at first when it came but then I noticed some tiny bad spots, the corner was quite badly scuffed & some of the trim was also scuffed I didn't think it'd matter and I don't think anyone else will notice, but it bothers me still..

Looks really nice lit up at night though, I'll have to get some shots.

hey am just wondering if you made this yourself or bought it? because i want to make my own dash just like this, however i am strugling with getting the right fit. so just wondering if you have measurements for one?


You can buy this dash n the same one in black and white from www.ocoop.com for £115 hope that helped. Steph

I take it you mean the air vents? The dashboard I ordered from Custom Consoles came with 2 plastic pipe type things which fitted in between the air vent & the actual vent itself in the metal.

Wolfy, where did you get your Mini badge for the glovebox?

ETA - and do you mind telling what dials/clocks you have there, left to right? I can't think of six! >_<
