I wondered why these were so rare, but assume it is because they are easy to make.

 

Mine has a large clock in it (not even a rally clock) just a really large clock. I was going to either use the existing as a template or cover the hole with an ally sheet and re-clad ?

 

On that point, anyone know where I can get a small piece of black vinyl?

Thanks -- looks kinda nautical, Austin, Not the most interesting installation one has seen in this positioni, I gotta admit... But maybe you could put a mirror there for your co-driver? Might cut down on the moaning. (Or increase it for all I know...)

 

I got a nice piece of black vinyl from TRF along with the leather sill capping kit, and it worked perfectly -- so the material's out there, although kinda far from here to there. I'm sure our better-connected members like Stuart can offer advice.

 

Look at our friend Toronto Tim's TR4 glovebox panel for one that's really earning its pay.

That dash makes mine look so **** !

 

I am told that a plane stop watch/clock from a russian mig fighter would fill my hole which is around 3 inches ! But it also looks like there are proper larger rally 'clocks'

Here's the dash of PDU 20, an ex-works TR2 from the TRR's 40th anniversary a few years ago. Not my image, but I like the clocks.
