Mistermann Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Morning Chaps and Chapettes, As some of you have asked I have now had confirmation for the full set of brushed metal dash pieces: - dial rings (3 pieces) = £30 - air vents rings (2 pieces) = £12 - heater control rings (2 pieces) = £12 - mirrors switch ring (1 piece) = £6 - cigarette lighter ring (1 piece) = £6 - digital clock ring (1 piece) = £6 - ignition key ring (1 piece) = £6 - manual shifter surround (1 piece) = £20 And for the whole set - £90 All prices include postage and are made to order so the turnaround is a little slow but worth it I hope. I am awaiting pictures of the full set but here is a taster of the dial surrounds. [ATTACH=CONFIG]136386[/ATTACH] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starbuck Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Whats the material? Aluminium? If they can be anodised I'd be interested in a full Set. Need to find someone who can anodise them though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 They are brushed aluminium pal. I googled aluminium anodising and there appear to be a handful of companies that can do it for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KamaSupra Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Do you need to bend back the back of the rings to make them fit or do they just go straight on mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted July 26, 2011 Author Share Posted July 26, 2011 I haven't had to bend or modify any of them to get them to fit - Although I haven't tried the speedo cluster yet, from their design they should fit snug over the lip at the edge of the dial. I have almost a full set on my car and all of them fit really well, I havent even had to get the double sided tape out yet! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the speedo ones just push on and don't need the back of the ring bent to fit them, I'll probably be interested Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downimpact Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 Interested in more pieces, want to have a look at the dash rings when they arrive before deciding which other bits to get, some photos of your's as an example maybe good just as an idea of how it all looks.

Noz Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 would like some close up shots please? and im pretty sure you require a particular grade of aluminum to anadise Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 These arrived on saturday afternoon! And to those already paid - they will be in the post this afternoon as soon as I get to the post office - thank you for your patience. Here are some pics of mine: [ATTACH=CONFIG]136691[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]136692[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=CONFIG]136693[/ATTACH] All of the dial surrounds on my dash are pushed in - so far I have not had to use double sided tape or adhesive or bend any funny bits of metal. You may feel like using a bit of double sided tape but none of mine have moved since putting them all in on saturday afternoon...I just pushed them on and twisted them a little to line them up! [ATTACH=CONFIG]136694[/ATTACH] Please excuse the condition of my dash and its garish redness - its soon to be back to black and also note that the heater dials abd clock cover are not the same as the one's I have ordered (I got these some time ago) The sets that are available to all of you are the same style as the speedo cluster (thinner and rolled rather than flat and wide) - p/facelift dial rings (3 pieces) or facelift dial rings (5 pieces) = £30 - air vents rings (2 pieces) = £12 - heater control rings (2 pieces) = £12 - mirrors switch ring (1 piece) = £6 - cigarette lighter ring (1 piece) = £6 - digital clock ring (1 piece) = £6 - ignition key ring (1 piece) = £6 - manual shifter surround (1 piece) = £20 And for the whole set - £90 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KamaSupra Posted August 2, 2011 Share Posted August 2, 2011 That's looking good mate I was worried they were the ones where you bend the back of the ring with a pen to make them fit, I already messed up a set like that Just pushing them on is so much easier, I'll be in touch in the next couple of days for some dash rings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted August 2, 2011 Author Share Posted August 2, 2011 Lol - yes mate yours are on their way! You are far too keen!! Thanks Kama - they are ready when you are buddy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neo2810 Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks mate, mine arrived safely today. The middle is a bad fit but nothing tape won't sort. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mistermann Posted August 4, 2011 Author Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks for letting me know - two of the surrounds are slightly angled, have you used the right one? (Not wanting to sound patronising! But I swapped mine around a couple of times before getting them to sit flush and without having to use any tape) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
downimpact Posted August 4, 2011 Share Posted August 4, 2011 Thanks mate, mine arrived safely today. The middle is a bad fit but nothing tape won't sort. Cheers Yeah I thought this at first but a bit of jiggling and they all fit nicely. They look very good well impressed how it updates the dash, think I'll buy some other bits.
