Hello everyone I thought I would give an update on my 1966 fasty dash install. I bought the dash from Kustom1 wharehouse. It looked great. I did a test fit on the gages, and the dash was too thick. The gages did not fit right. The springs on the side of the gages would not pop out and hold it onto the car. I had to get some exacto knives and cut away about a 1/4" strip off the inside of the dash. It took me two days of slowly cutting the dash. I put it in and the screw holes and the dash chrome strip holes all lined up! it was amazing! It took some effort but it was worth it. I didn't have to remove the steering wheel either. thanks Russ for your advice on how to do this. I took my time and it looks great! thanks again Dave Fox 66 Fasty 68 Bug convt Dave Fox 66 fasty 68 Bug convt 74 Bradley GT ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
