Nope, that is the correct price to be expected from THAT seller.

Nuff said.

although it costs $100 to ship these from the UK....but that's as a single item, not in bulk like these guys would get.

There's something I just don't like about those dashes, or any Mini dash for that matter. I really don't like the flat, boxey, 'closed in' feel of these dashes. Someone needs to make cool fibreglass ones with a more interesting shape, curves, better embellishments etc. There has to be a more interesting way to do a Mini dash...

I remember seeing an orange fibreglass dash in a black mini on the net somewhere ..... i think it was in pics at London-Brighton 2001???

Would be close to what you want.

See if I can find it......

Ahhh.... found it

The bit under the dash looks a bit tacky.... but you can always leave it out. Saw a guy advertising these on eBay UK a while back aswell.....

Looks like a Broadspeed dash...

Yea they're made by "Southern Mini Centre" do a search they've got a site - their black dash looks amazing (atleast in the photos) but I heard they are incredibly difficult to mount properly and the sellers provide no support or instructions.

Nice, :) but they only came in LHD, I think. :cry:

<edit> 13secmini has done a great job (pink, of course) on the dash in Barbi the Pinkmobile, maybe he'll post a pic.. :?:
