Default MK 1 6 dial dash

How much do you want to pay?

What type do you want - Woodgrain, black, silver face? :

You will need a dash top, even harder to find but available from a bloke in Sydney i think

Wood-grain ones are the cheapest, followed by Black and the Silver ones are quite dear.

$250 for a black one is a decent price!

I paid near on $350 for a 140MPH/8000RPM Silver one a couple years back.. and that was one I imported myself so no huge markup.

You'll need to hack the metal dash panel as well, you will also need the wiring loom that usually comes with it and an oil line out to the engine for the pressure gauge.
