Well, all the panels are on. Doors have locks but no furniture. Just decided to do a little job last night - fit the fog light switch. Well blow me down, it ended up with all the dash out to go back over the wiring, no power to where the headlights are going to be but sidelights ok. I had two wires wrong on the relays so that was fine, power now going to the fog light switch too. But it was on all the time! So all the steering column wires came out and I traced all the brown/black wires to find one had been taped up ? so I connected that to the other terminal on the fog light and bobs your ferkin! Meanwhile it is apparent that now the power is going to the headlights that the column stalk is U/S. So, another one ordered from fleabay. Of course, now everything is unravelled its time to make an even neater job of it than i did the first time and maybe try version 74 of the dashboard? hmmm
research on the emarking of glass is covered in another post but...here's an interesting thing..a farmer chum of mine mentioned he had just had a new screen in his telehandler - flat laminated glass and emarked to the correct specification to boot! So maybe an agricultural windscreen contractor is the way to go? His huge screen was only £160 fitted and was made from three panels!
Wont be ready for stoneleigh though

Did a new dash today...Managed to make the 'cake' gauges from teh dolly work, was a bit of a fiddle but not too difficult. All the gauges are recessed into the dash and there is nothing of the bezel sticking out to give the iva man a palpitation. Heater has been wedged on demist until after the test and a vinyl covered board made to cover it all. The underdahs area is also all boxed in with mdf panels, again covered in vinyl to match.
The steering whel is a cossie one from ebay to which I have added the YKC logo (made from an online logo generator). Overall Im quite happy but think this will be the first area I do up after teh test - if I ever get that far!
Pics here - please dont laugh...
