Definitely not a Starlet-based dash or Starlet cluster (EP82 or EP91 Starlet)

If you want to make a dash that fits into the existing clubby upper and lower railings, it's really quite easy provided you have a few simple cutting tools.

You can find a dash template here, as well as centre console, under-seat speaker pods and parcel shelf templates:
http://rapidshare.com/files/136607360/mini.zip

You just need to find a way to attach it to the existing railings. I used a couple of bolts that attached to a couple of uprights that hooks around the railings, and then covered the bolts with the CD player plate so you can't see them. And if I ever want to remove it, there are no bolt or screw holes to deal with.
Excuse the photo quality here.

Thanks for the link irish yobbo.
All good ideas, but i dont think id be very good at making it myself.
If someone wants to make me one without holes for cd player etc just with a glove box id give a carton of beer or similar to the maker. :)
Dosnt need to be covered either, just a base.
