Terry,
Im after the same sort of thing, i would like to replace my old split
black vinyl dash on my Mk, with a nice wood dash, but my car is at the
shop at the moment getting the rust cut out of it..
Does anyone have a template( paper ) or dimensions for the their dash,
that i may use to create a plywood backing.
P.S did the Mk come out with a wood dash??
