My mk1 Build *S1 dash now in, pg9*
May be irrelavent, but on mine, the top numbers are whole miles, and the trip meter has smaller increments in red. I would have thought if it were 59k, the last number on the top row would be red, as it is on the trip meter.
My car hasnt done 3800 miles!![:lol:](https://vwgolfmk1.org.uk/themes/default/images/ocf_emoticons/lol.gif)
Nice dash btw!
Ps i'll trade my dash for your bumpers and a snickers :mrgreen:
You know you want too!

I actually looked at that pic to compare it and realised it looked more like 600k too. Some s1 dashes have the trip meter on the top row so thats why I had doubts.
If I said deal what would you do for a dash?

Update!
Dash, centre console and wheel on.
Just need to get the carpet sections to cover the wires and a new hazard switch as it doesnt work.
Retro blaupunkt radio converted to play an iPod :wink:
Had to make a bracket for the choke as this s1 dash doesnt have a mounting point for it.
Before and after pics

As far as I know s1 dash's should have carpet draping over the area with the wires. I dont know how it attaches but I'll figure something out.
Are you not going to put the under trays back on?

Theres 2 kinda pressed felt sections that wedge under the dash to cover everything up.

Heres how not to fit them
They slot into the dash, and i think there are slots on the bulkhead for the bottom, though i'm not certain on that, as mine tend to come out at the bottom.

Ah, thanks for the pic
I doubt I'll find a set of those though so I might just have to make something for the time being.
