    Dash Board for my D90

    Another 30 minutes remain before I call off the day for this boring working saturday. Think of sharing my lately finished project 'Dash Board' with every body.

    As usual it started from scatch book. (actually from the head inside) :-


    follow by card board templete


    go for rough cut




    the front piece was heated and bend to form to require angle. Aluminium tape were pasted to prevent over heated


    cool down with running tap water


    half finished look


    Front piece drilled according to switches and meter size.


    (stick carbon fiber sticker on to cover up the urgly look)

    the base also sticked with carbon fiber sticker


    Finished look before fixing to D90


    New dash board on my d90



    next to come, the detail of fixing method and bolting to D90

    Nice! What sort of plastic did you use?

    Where are you located - you have a RHD vehicle but your spelling of "fiber" was not a British spelling.

    Also tells us more (with pics) about the North Pole expedition shown on the notebook.

    Judging by the colour of the grass, the style of tiling and the sink photo, as well as the font of handwriting on the dash piece and the decor in the last photo, I'd say he is in Malaysia or Singapore.

    hahaha.. looks like no place for me to hide any more. next time should hide out all the back ground and hand writing.. yes. I'm Malaysian Chinese, current QTH (location) in Seremban 40 minutes south from Kuala Lumpur.

    For South & north pole expedition, it just a note book bought during some promotion of the expedition. About the material, I have to ask around the actual name of it. I bought it in bulk from some junk yard. Anyway it is hard enough to stay in shape and soft enough to cut with jigsaw with a good finishing.

    cheer

    Too many detectives on this forum!

    Another giveaway was the orientation of the switches - down for on.
