Dashboard fitting Superspec

[RH2BJS]

Hi,

Been registered on here sometime. Never posted before.

I am currently building my superspec. Which is the best way to attach the dash panel to the scuttle panel without bonding it. But to have it removable?

Many thanks.

You could attach some L brackets to the scuttle and then drill the dash panel and use stainless dome head bolts with some nuts behind.

I thought the dash was part of the scuttle on the Super Spec or I'm sure it is on mine

Thanks for all the replies. Yep it is the SuperSpec model and not the 2B. My profile is slightly wrong.

i bonded some big head bolts with fiberglass to the back of the dash, sikaflexed some l brackets and attach it using wingnuts

I could not reach all the electrics mounted on the firewall on the passenger side, so I went for a more flexible solution.   I removed all of the dash but left about 3/4" all round the scuttle.   I then built 3 sections out of MDF, put some captive bolts on to go through holes in the remaining metal rim and then covered them with vinyl.  The centre panel is solidly mounted and the side panels are just push fits.  In that way I can just take out either of the 2 side panels if I need to access the electrics or the brake system or the back of the instrument panel.

Thanks all,

That gives me a few options to look at. When i fit the dash panel in.
