Thread: Puma dash switch measurements

Flippin' aulro attachments always flippin' flippin'. Mother flippers.

Emmas is parallel to the edge not the top.

That's what I was thinking.
There is going to be some landscaping of the plastic ridges behind that panel, but it should turn out OK once all is said and done.

Someone with a 3d printer shoudl make a bezel like this:


Or even a full length one that allows various flat plastic or steel inserts to be cut out / added as needed (carling switches, 52mm gauges, brake controllers, volt meters etc).

Here is my installation.

Also rotated.

It is aligned with the top edge. Anything else would look crooked.

Top job.
Pickles.

Nice pic. Might be the orientation of the pic, but it looks like it's aligned more with the LHS than the top edge?

It's difficult to judge what looks best because the panel is curved in multiple planes.
I put a level on the 'top' edge closest the vent , and it's not quite level.
Nor is the LHS edge straight, as it is convex.

I think it's because of the light on the rolled edge.
It is level (measure 37 times, cut once, remember).

if you are going to that much trouble,

then you should also block most of those uncontrolled centre vents and "plate" the top of the dash both ways with a low height gap to allow at least some heat/cool towards passenger/driver from alongside the window (the outside of dash facing in!)

(stop the frozen outside roasted inside in winter and reverse in summer!!) why landrover didnt put a 2nd vent on the outer sides is beyond me, they almost got the dash right!
