how do people have there dashes set up can people post pics as i dont know how to do mine. i like how the original one acts as a big tray so id like to keep it like that but i also wnat to put in a cd player and speakers somewhere too. my car came with the cd player tied under the front seat with string but i didnt really like this design

my car is a clubman with a tree clock speedo by the way

OK here's the latest one I have of mine.
Straight shelf with head unit mounted to the under passenger side.
There are small cheap speaker pods mounted under each end of the parcel shelf as well.

Your welcome to copy it because personally I think it looks revolting.
Custom dash is in design stage for mine.

is that a clubman front if soo how come you got a speedo in the middle?

My uncle has a mate with a really cool hot rod he built for his wife, anyway, to keep the dash original and uncluttered, the head unit is mounted in the roof, and the fabric surrouds it. It looks really good, maybe something like that would work.
Another thing would be to put it under the rear seats, in the centre to stay away from legs, but you'd have to have a remote for it. The speakers could sit either side, keeping the wiring simple.

Yep Clubbie with Government povety pack - ex postal service van
no frills no expence spent when they ordered these cars LOL

lol ok is that why you got a magic want gearstick too

When I had a clubman I made a cardboard template to fill the hole dash from the gages to the passeger side door jamb & the made cut outs for a gauge & sitch panel in the top midle & a cut out for a cd in the center midle . Transfered it to MDF put some bolts through to pick up the hooks on the back of dash edge then covered it with padding & back vinal. PS and a cut out for a glove box to stick your arm through to do the bolts up. Sorry I didn't Take pics.

"HAD" At last I can say the operative word is "had" LOL

mine is between engines at the mo and getting a remote box soon.

sounds good cuase i dont want to loose that valuble shelving space

yer, u can almost fit ur wallet on there

yep thats exactly what i use it for

this is the dash im my clubbie, i dont have the face on my cd player but you can see it anyways. Since this pic was taken ive put a hinged "glovebox" door in the dash but with no actual box so its just the normal shelf behind there, hard to find things sometimes haha. Im still working on a better way to mount it though

Hey, Kasper flipped

My aluminium dash looks almost exactly like that I have 3 guages though I found mounting was OK cause I had my aluminium bent and it pushes back against the the fire wall bit just above the wheel arches which stops it going in too far. I then used the two screw holes that held the old clubman radio to hold a aluminium strip that stops the dash falling in your lap. Maybe something similar could work for yours ?

How did you hold your guages up nice and tight to the aluminium? I had to put a screw through and tighten it up but other than that and the two screws that mounted in the holes where the radio was there are no screws on the dash face.

I did a glove box, I used Piano hinge and rivets (not pop rivets but the ones you bash with a ball peen hammer) It looks nice and neat I was also able to get a cam lock / latch which if you bend the cam can fit nicely behind the top clubman dash pad.

Just Ideas I thought might help

where do you get those cool speedo backgrouns i want some

My gauges are held in place by screwing into 4 little pieces of square tube aluminum that has been "metal glued" to the dash, and my dials were made by me at my work and all of it cost me zip, both of these are the perks of working in a sign manufacturing business i guess!!
