Thanks everyone. My crash pad is ok but I'm getting the impression this has to be removed along with the dash. Can I just remove and replace the dash? It doesn't seem too attached to the crash pad.
Most crash pads are stapled to the dashboard from behind.
I am currently fitting a complete new mould injected plastic crashpad instead of the Banks foam one. It is proving difficult as you have to cut the ends away to make it fit in the 50" gap between the two front window pillars. Plus you have to cut out the demister vent holes. I will post progress when I have managed to actually fit it complete with a dashboard.
Today, after my marathon 15 day "honey do" was finished, I started wiring up the 4 new dashboards with 4 new looms. The problem is Bank's wiring diagram is hard to read as the colours are not easy to see, and he does no use letters to differentiate the colours, only the coloured wiring diagram. Some wires need extending to fit, but I completely stripped 7 old looms, so I have heaps of the correct coloured wires for extensions/adaptions. The new loom only has radio speaker wiring to one door, but who listens to a radio when driving a Europa, I would much rather hear the exhaust note.
