Hi All,

I am after pics of your clubman dashes. I am going to be building my own soon and i am looking for some ideas.

I couldn't find any good topics on this when I searched but it is highly likely i missed it. So sorry if this has been done before :roll:

I'm not really after templates as i have heaps, more after finished product pictures

Thanks
Jess

Hmmm It has been done, but I cant find it either - You could also check out the UK Mini forum they have a section devoted to it...

clubmans you are really limited I found.. with that upper and lower crash pad.. all you can do is whack a piece of mdf between them and mount gauges on it...

I'd love to use two layers of coloured perpsex.. black on red.. so the cutout for the dials show the red layer behind the black.. also can make it nice and shiney.

there's some great dashes made in the UK.. look up curley carbon fiber.. he does a nice one..

Hi Jess,

This is the dash for my 77 clubbie. it is made using 2 sheets of 4.5mm perspex one black one red. I had it lazer cut and have the AutoCAD file. it is bolted in in three spots from the front.

I have also covered the glove box since these photos have been taken.
