The dash looks really nice.  Wish the photo was bigger to see it better.

Doof doof - check it out in Clancy boys image gallery.

Clancy, your camper is sizing up to be a sweeeet camper! You would be happy with it I imagine?
Now lets talk about that dash....

Where did you get the instrument cluster from? It looks mint and I want to do the same to my dash...
None of my gauges work any way! Need to replace asap.

Info on where to buy would be great - again I must compliment you on your build - looking good my friend, looking good...

Hi Guys, thanks for the compliments.
All the instruments came off ebay, speedo the lot. the fourway gauge was commented on in the old forum with a link to the ebay seller.
I think this is it:-
cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=180239508650&ssPageName=STRK:MEWA:IT&ih=008

All the switches & indicator lights eg high beam etc are leds from Repco but the part numbers I sourced from the Narva web site:-
http://www.narva.com.au/

It took me 2.5 months to source all the right bits through ebay so keep searching guys! my searches included "speedometer", "fuel gauge" "auto instruments" etc.

 Yes it is an XF steering column and after much frustration I got everything working including the high beam flick switch part!! AARGGghh that took a while! there is a tiny contact buried deep in the switch, hard to describe and to find but it was worn out so I recrafted another!!
cheers and hope this helps.
