I love all these. My dash seems to be coming away at the ends and my chain that would hold my glovebox up when it was open has broken.

(ignore the fact it wont close. New clip on its way. haha)

If anyone could tell me how to put it back into the dash and what they use as a stay for an open glovebox :teehee: Would be great.

Cheers

Hi - sorry for using my wifes account! (I am her husband) I am in the process of making her a dashboard, centre console and armrest that fit in with the look of her 1986 mini mayfair. It has Brown Interior...now what do you do with that!

The answer is a sheet of 12mm mdf, an old brown leather sofa, a scrap Rover 800 (for the dials) a scrap Vauxhal Omega (for the auto shift gator) and a sheet of vinyl.

We are pretty happy with the result. I am going to change the black self adhesive vinyl though - it looks like Fablon.

As its an auto mayfair I had to cut a different shape hole than the manual.

Darren

Thats really rather good.
