24V Renshaw 0 Posted November 14, 2003 Well at least I have proof that I am the first to do a TT dash in a Corrado. Lovely pic of my car and the semi finished dash. See Pg 102 of Decembers PVW. Woohoo. Need to get it all finished for inters now. J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chris VR6nos 0 Posted November 15, 2003 How about some costs and fitting tips? That is something i'd like to do but isn't it a problem getting all the electrics and dash to work correctly? What did you do? Chris Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted November 16, 2003 Dubster 82, I have never seen a Corrado with a TT dash in a magazine or anywhere on the net, what I meant was its proof of the first one to be "seen". Obviously if someone shows me proof of one done earlier then fair enough. In all honesty I am just happy with the reaction it gets. Dubbprince, I am in Bournemouth but my GF's parents live up near Harrogate so I am up there every couple of months. Cheers J Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted November 16, 2003 ChrisVR6NOS, My first tip is unless you know a hell of a lot about vehicle wiring don't bother. I don't want to put people off by any means, but there are 3 x 32 pin connectors on the back of the dials to start with. Then there is the climatronic!! The wiring work is endless to get everything working. Because mine is a daily driver (I need to get to work) I had to get everything working. The wiring aside the other major factor obviously is getting it to fit. You have to totally re-stucture all the heater ducting, fit all the climatronic system (holes in the fire wall etc...), completely re-do all the underside of the centre tunnel, move the handbrake, fabricate brackets all over the place, completely modify the shape of the dash.. the list goes on... You also have to make new door cards to clear the dash as its slightly wider. In the end though, I say go for it. I did and am glad I did.

G60Jet 1 Posted November 16, 2003 did you see the project rallye conversion PVW have done a tt dash too, there are wires hanging all over the shop :shock: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubster82 0 Posted November 16, 2003 G60Jet, yesh, you'd of thinked they'd have tidied it up, but they wanted it out there in the public eye Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
