[Tigers] Prestige dashes

[Rollright at aol.com]

Hello,
 
Thought I'd dash a line off on the current subject. I bought a Prestige  
dash when Randy was working out of his garage (he may still be). Went there  
before ordering to look at veneers and picked a very burled Carpathian Elm. 
Came  out the right color, and absolutely beautiful. Perhaps the best single 
feature  of my Mk1A. Randy says he builds them like Surfboards; totally 
sealed so  delamination can never reappear. He makes an optional version with a 
cover for  the cubby box. Not my taste but others have them.
 
    Anyway, if  you have a new dash made by  anybody, make sure the extra 
hole for an aux switch is sized in both hole  diameter, and importantly 
'hog-out' in the rear for a three position switch.You  may want to add a fog 
light switch or one for an aux electric fan.  On  Randy's, he normally makes the 
hole diameter a bit too small (probably just like  stock, fits the chrome 
plug better) but you have to ream it out to get  a Lucas switch in there. And 
the relief in the rear only fits a two position  (much smaller) Lucas 
switch. You should have the option of both 2 and 3  position.
 
Much luck,
