Hey guys, I completed my dash upgrade this weekend. Huw's guide was very
helpful as well as some of the e-mails I received from the list. I wouldnt
hesitate to do the swap again armed with the experience, my Mars car doesnt have a
cracked dash but I may upgrade it anyway. Took me a day and a half at a
leasurely 90+ degree pace.
I went to the digital gauge panel with the 2 position diff locks and that
went fairly smoothly.
I have two things I need help with though.
A) I need to wire in the newer style window switches. Before I hack
anything or blow fuses Im going to plea for advice.
I have a picture of the two switches side-by-side if anyone needs a vusial
referrence. I know the newer ones have an internal light and they have 5 wires
rather than 4.
B) I also ended up with my dash lights (cluster and gauges) coming on with
my "always-on" lights (lighted switches), and the dimmer has no function. I
think I can track this down, but just being lazy and looking for an easy way
out. I could also just live with it I guess but its nice to be able to dim the
lights at night.
As always thanks in advance
Sean
