Hi, i dont know what you really mean ? to fit the dashboard wasn't a big task only to click in the rear studs wasn't easy. some friend of mine fit a 'tietendash' i think it called in english boobdash from a 77'er into a 82'er and it fits, only the wires where not the same color
cheers

white rims where lovely but i couldn't drop enough with the 1500cc carter so i decided to buy a inch bigger 14 > 15inch and no i'm almost happy with the ride hight my friend bought the wolfrace rims for under his MK2 1300cc and he can go much lower than i so the rims are on his car fantastic i will post some of the pics then you can see
if i got a 1100cc or 1300cc i wouldn't sold my 14'
cheers

The dash fitted in your car is different to UK dashboards, we have glovebox's that open upwards and so no there is no top tray to place items on.
Nice car by the way! 8)

I've never seen a RHD version of that dash, shame as I wouldn't mind one myself.
