Dumb dash question .-.

Post by SlimGrim » Sat Aug 27, 2016 11:27 pm

Can I replace my jap samurai 88 dash,(no frills) with this one in some miraculous way or another? I love the triple gauges so much & also where would I get hold of one?

The sj410 and (early i think) sj413 gauges have the round parts you can put dash gauges in, LHD and RHD

They're just the air vent openings reassigned as regular 2" gauge pods, the middle one is blank from the factory and the foam plastic is cut open by hole saw.

I don't know what folk do re-routing the cabin vent air tho?

Open the window :D

I've lost my center vents. They only blow cold air anyway.
