Thumbs up Late 944 Dash Replacement

Just thought i'd post up pics of my dash replacement project

Had a crappy warped plastic dash cover and this was underneath



Removing the pieces...
center console, shift knob radio, a-pillar trim, and everything attached on the dash

The clear plastic on the climate control was probably the most fragile thing to take off, quite happy it came out in one piece.


while i had the cluster out, i decided to try cleaning the contacts for my gauges.
before i had problems with the inaccuracy of my fuel, volt, oil pressure, and temp gauges always reading 1/4 lower then it was supposed to be, by cleaning the brass contacts on the football shaped plugs and on the circuit board, it turned out great, all gauges are accurate again! Never dull polish wads work very well with cleaning the contacts. also used this tech article on the website for reference guide.

Dashboard finally out.



take this time to repair any HVAC issues, for me it was a few broken vent door rod clips.

Unpack minty dashboard, also bought dash vents and a working dash clock. Purchased from Gravesjeg BTW Thanks! it turned out great!


After Pics



decided to install a new stereo, speakers, and a bazooka tube. so now it sounds awesome
