I'm after a TD5 Dashboard (possibly clocks as well?) for my 90 (basically to house my radio and spruce the interior up a bit). Besides eBay (which I detest), where else should I be looking? (I think I have covered most forums, but none seem to be for sale!)

I might go the whole hog and get some seats that aren't torn to shreds to at the same time.

It's there any specific breakers yards that don't take the Micky in terms of prices? Or is it just a case of sitting and waiting?
 
I'd recommend a MUD console - got one in my Ninety and there's loads of rooms for stereo, CB, plus a load of switches. Really looks "factory" when fitted.
 
Hmmm...I might be tempted with the mud console then...for some reason, I thought it would be "too hardcore off road" for my style (probably the name), so it never really entered my option list.

Any photos of yours fully set up?

How do you go about the cradle for the radio? Is it something you have to buy extra?

I'm looking at the Carling switches now...I don't need any, but I want some haha.
 
Here's my MUD console and MUD pod.

For the head unit you just cut out the required size hole and then insert the cage that comes with the head unit - they usually have metal tabs that you bend round the sides of the hole to keep it in place. My CB was the same as it came with a DIN adaptor thing.

I've moved all my switches from around the steering wheel onto the centre console, plus added switches for spotlights, heated mirrors, work light. There's some extra gauges, and two LEDs - one for the alarm, and one to tell me when the fan is on.

Hope that helps :)

Oh, and before anyone asks - the middle switch in the "pod" doesn't do anything! It's there because Sod's Law says there'll always be a need for just one more switch...
 
Aaron - That one was up for £200 last week...I just can't justify paying that sort of dollar :(

Instant - thanks for posting that...looks really smart. Think I'm going to have a crack at building one myself...if I fail, then Mud is the way I'll go. Thanks again
