just wondering what dash would fit into a vl with the lest effort and decent look like would a vn-vp or a vr-vs or a vt or a vy?

any VN to VT dash fitted with the least effort will look crap

i cant see a VN-VT dash looking any good in a vl anyway.. whats wrong with the old school vl dash?

well you know what i mean not the least effort but you know what i eman i saw a vl with one didnt now what it was looked awsome ill try and find a pic

Quote: Originally Posted by turboluke any VN to VT dash fitted with the least effort will look crap id have to disagree, there was a fella who had instructions on how to fit a VS dash into the vls, ok i thawt it would look crappy as well, but the pics proved me wrong, looked VERY VERY good i was quite impressed with the final result and i would have to say looked much better than the old dash, gave the car a more modern interior look. i can try find the site, but last time i checked he closed the page down an said something like hes seen too many people do it to vls. to be honest ove only ever seen 1 VL in life with it but many photos and i can say they all looked really good.

Marmo, You'll end up with the most stupid looking N/A or converted VL. Sounds like you're related to our friend on here with the Lexcen Why not go to the beach instead or get out and meet some girlies

i'd actually like to fit in a HSV GTO interior (seats, same type of carpet, dashboard, everything) into a HQ Monaro.

i dont see why people are against changing to a more modern dash,, i mean everyone wants some nice HSV seats etc, why not the dash?? but then again i see the point about doing it with the "least" ammount of effort,, anything like this is going to be a HUGE job, it wasnt meant to fit in a VL, but if your goingto do it i think the VR-VS dash would suit it best

marmo just give up dude ... the newer style dash's are too bubble like for the vl shape .. why not retrim your vl dash in a vinyl or something similar Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

marmo, its ur car dude, i say do what u like. reckon if u can get it to work t would look neat. Otherwise do what VL_EXEC86 said and retrim it in vinyl or something. that would also look good

ur a dum **** mate ive had enuf of ur posts marmo just give it up u dont own a honda civic!! ffs!

This site would be dull and pointless if everyone did the what is "ruled" acceptable. This site works a treat because everyone can speak their opinions without being belittled. You can express yourself through your car and ideas, and other ideas can be nutured and grow while learning what works, and doesn't work. 90% of the fun is building your ideas, and watching them come to life. My own thoughts and opinions have changed in certain cases, due to the input of people on this site. It's all fair and good putting up a post saying you don't like something. Personally I would be interested in seeing a VL with a modern dash, as my interior isn't stock anyway. Good luck with your project Marmo. That Pic looks kinda like a VT or VX - not too sure though. My appologies for my rambling. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

that is a fcuking eyesore of an interior dude... anyway thats a vt onwards dash im pretty sure. have another look thats really bad, with the vl climate control sticking out of the vx whatever surround.
