Dash Replacement Problem....
 

Well I took off the old dashpad and have the new in about 80%. The problem I'm having is the screw holes don't line up corrently. All the studs went in no problem and I hand tightened them but the screws at the bottom where the windshield goes don't line up.

Should I drill new holes and screw it down or just leave it like that and install the windshield?:confused:

Wait for your responses!!!:D

Did you purchase the dash pad new? When I purchased my dash pad it didn't have any of the holes drilled for the front screws by the windshield. I had to locate the hole under the flap and simply put the screw through the vinyl.

Are these the screws you are talking about...

Turboruf those are the screws that i'm talking about, but i took care of it i just drilled new holes. becuase the dash already had holes in it so i just took a small bit and made new holes using the dash holes as a guide and ta da perfect fit. thanks for your help.

Glad to hear everything worked out.

Did you replace a leather dash pad? I have an 81sc with leather.

Yeah I replaced the old leather dash with a new one. I got a good deal on the dash $245 shipped. I'll post pictures later showing the before and after there's a huge difference. :D

You replaced it with a leather dash pad?

ok where do you get a dash for 245?

Yes. I have the same question as redducati750. Where did
you get that Leather Dash for 245?

Let me know as well....

I got the dash from a very good friend of mine. He was selling it for $400 but gave it to me for $245 included shipping. I jumped all over it. But it does have 1 or 2 minor things wrong with it but for $245 I can live with it. I'll post pic of it later.
