Thought on Astra GTE Digital Dash in a B?

Post by DexterSinister »

I've got a digital dash kicking around that I am thinking about putting into the Corsa.
It's been adapted already to fit something else, so it wouldn't be too hard to adapt it again.
Does anyone have any pics of it done well? Do you think it looks good in a Corsa B or is it a little bit too old for the car?

It's currently in an Escort dash, but I still have the rest of the GTE clocks somewhere to adapt to the Corsa clocks.
This was years ago now and I can do a better job these days, but here it is in the Escort:

(I think I lined up the rev counter a bit neater than that in the end, but no glue or anything, all screws together :)

So digi dash in a Corsa, yay or nay? :-|

I think it's abit dated tbh but it's still nice to see one retro fitted though

If it doesn't fit,
force it,
If it breaks,
It needed replacing anyway :thumbs:

I'm into it!

I've looked for other digi dashes to go into a b to be different but with no luck for anything that would really work.

That's looks boss in the escort tho

Cheers guys :D
Yeah I think I'm leaning towards fitting it now, I mean it does match the digital display in the centre of the dash, so doesn't look too out of place :meh:
