#1 Dash Pad Brackets

Post by Rustyred » Mon Jul 18, 2016 11:20 am

Hi All.

Is there anyone that could tell me the correct location for these Dash Facia Mounting brackets.
Previous repairs had 20 holes drilled in them and on the body, which I welded and dressed. Due to accident damage the dash and pad was not sitting correctly and was bent, so I need to start in the right spot.
Any help would be appreciated.

Dear John,
This is essentially a question which is "Where does the inner (forward) dash sit?". To answer that, fit the windscreen rubber and the front part of the dash. This part of the dash is held by four screws and kept in place by the four hoses of the dash air supply. The eyelets overlap and will then have to match with rear part of the dash.

Two of te many holes into the sides of the bulkhead (per side) hold the chrome trim which covers the join of the hockey sticks to the dash.

kind regards
Marek

Thanks for your reply Marek.

I will have to wait for the front dash pad cover and fit that all up, then go from there. Thanks for the tip of fitting windscreen rubber.
