Anyone know where in Melbourne I can get my clubman top dash panel repaired, has 2 splits in it.

Or if anyone has one they want to sell 77 model with handbrake and brake light in the dash

Look for someone who does re-skinning. They are almost a dime a dozen these days.

Easier & cheaper tp buy a Rover dash pad & swap it over.

They quoted my mate $450 to re-skin his HQ dash pad.

cool

who would have thought $450 to re-skin a dash, although i reckon a mini couldn't be more than $200 its not very large or complex

Try your local upholsterer, I had mine redone a couple of years back and it looks great.
