Broadspeed dashboard

Post by GTEm »

Hi,

I remembered to see on this forum a broadspeed dashboard replica in LHD, like in the broadspeed GT.
If I remember well it was from a member in Portugal. So if you could help me it will be great.

Cheers

Is that not a Motortune item? Not a GT dash, unless the one in EOP89D is incorrect..... :shock:

Yes something similar to this but LHD.

It was in the Australian Broaspeed GT see Maximum Mini page 17 (sorry for the poor pic)

The man in Portugal sold the dashboard on ebay.

If I don't found one I'm trying to build one but if I can save soem hours it will be great ;)

Hey there,

I started a topic about a LHD dashboard a while ago, I'm not sure if it's the one you saw:

viewtopic.php?f=5&t=755


And we have this dashboard being sold as a Speedwell here in Portugal

That looks great, I'm sure if it were right hand drive it'd sell well over here in the UK

It's exactly the traed I'm looking for, but how I searched broadspeed I hadn't found.
Do you know if it's steel available ?

These new ones are being sold here for around £180

And I believe they can be made for RHD

So sandro_f was able to contact the manufacturer to get these fantastic dashes made in RHD, who is on for getting one? I am in for two of them for sure. He needs at least 10 units to make it happen or more to make it happen cheaper. He posted his findings in the For Sale section.

I know about the dash that was selling in Portugal, I actually bought one from the guy. However being the dishonest person that he was he never sent it and gave me the run around up until I was unable to make a claim with paypal. he closed his account and reopened another a few months later.I contacted him and asked his if he did right hand drive as well. of course he said yes. The short of this be very careful I got taken for 180 and would hate for anyone else to as well.

I'm not the one that made that deal with you.

Please confirm that, so mk1-forum users are not lead by mistake on this.

GTEm was the only one that got a dashboard from me, and I was a simple intermediary.

The user name had changed several times but the last profile that the guy had was tiagotiks it was deleted soon after. I never said it was you sandroand honestly wasn't aware that more people were trying to sell them. I would still love to get my hands on one, if you have any advise on where to get one please drop me a line. Sandro I do appologise if anyone out there have thought this was you.
