xr6tbaboon Member 22 Member For: 17y 8d Posted 28/09/08 03:26 AM Share Posted 28/09/08 03:26 AM Hey as topic says I need some help with a dash matYes sounds easy, but it the little thingsOk a normal dash mat wont fit due to having a tripod gauge setup, the clock one wont fit same reason.the ones with the gauge cut out doesn't fit, as it a tripod no the standard fpv twin gauge.So my options are to buy one with the cut out in it, and modify it, or take to a car upholster to do.as I want it to look complete and proper, not just hacked up.or is there one out there that will fit off the shelf that people are using.Nathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How come it won't fit around the tripod? Edited 28/09/08 03:34 AM by senna_T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xr6tbaboon Member 22 Member For: 17y 8d Posted 28/09/08 04:02 AM Author Share Posted 28/09/08 04:02 AM (edited) the one I tried today, the cut out is too small in the widthit wants to sit over the guage on the driver side.it only allows for the two guage factory option of fpv, not the third from ppaI am not sure on the original stuff from ford, but this one didnt sit on the outside of the triangle area, but sat an covered most of itit was a sun land one, the aunger site and books dont have one.
