Complete new dash
Well, finally got all the parts to replace my dash and console...
New (console (all parts), shift boot, ****, drivers side, center bezel, and am on the final PS side... So am thinking about installing a clock in the AC vent on the corvette bumper or install in the flat plate... any comments
New Interior.
Trying to decide to use the bumper or just mount on left side of flat plate and still have the ac vent....

Looks good Vinnie! I would try to keep the ac vent. Your passengers will thank you on a hot day.

Re: Complete new dash (rick lambert)
JMHO but, the analog clock with the digital dash looks out of place. Maybe one of those small adhesive digital clocks that you can get from Autozone, Advance or even Wally World in the lower left corner of the panel where the crash pad used to be would look better. I've even seen them with green digits that would blend well with the digital dash better.
Best Regards,
Mike.

Re: Complete new dash (Steven P)
I would get rid of the clock. Didn't you know that Vettes are so fast that they can bend time therefore making clocks irrelevant :jester
Looks great Vinnie :thumbs:
Maybe a stopwatch, but not a clock :jester

Lookin good Vinnie :thumbs:
A clock on the flat panel is a great idea. If your going with an analog amybe some thing a little smaller. Although a digital would look great there as well. Maybe balance it with a Corvette logo or letters...
