Dashboard Complete

Today I completed cutting out the dashboard panel and installing the gauges, switches and lights. I cut the dash panel out of a sheet of aluminum, cutting a slot for the steering column and drilling holes for the tachometer, oil pressure and water temperature gauges along with the 4 switches and indicator lights and the start button. Then I bent the flat panel along the line were the mounting bars changed angles.


After completing the panel I installed the 3 gauges, four switches and indicator lights, and the start button. Then I took it to the buggy and fit in place making sure it all lined up with the mounting bars. I still need to drill and screw it in place but it fits up nicely.
