The dash at night


Recommended Posts

Posted

Bask in the warm, orange glow of a 2013 phase 1 Dacia Duster. Complete with service light lit, cos I haven't gotten round to resetting it yet!294b57eadc2cbde165dca16f624256fd.jpg

Fuel/temp/odometer borrowed from a 2005-ish Renault Traffic van...

I considered a 75 but decided to go for something younger: that dash is just lush though. A really great piece of design.

Simplicity itself, minimal information and the panel light can be switched off if desired.

Prelude?

Prelude?

That's the one, Mk4. In my opinion one of the best looking sports coupes in the 90s.

Nice. Not a car I've ever had a chance to really see up close, they're nice lookers though that's for sure!

If you're doing Shitefest you're more than welcome to take a look round!

Here is the super extensive and well equipped dash of the Corolla:

And the full cockpit experience:

Bonus shot for those who appreciate a proper gearbox:

I had the fancier 2008 on hire for 6 months. It had blue lighting around the dials, and a TFT rather than segmented display. I quite liked it! It also had wavy LED light strips in the headlining which I loved.

 

In fact generally, ambient lighting is a really nice touch. Our Merc has orange light strips across the dash that shine down, and my old Focus had red "submarine" lights up by the rear view mirror that gave just enough light to be able to see how many sweets are left in the bag at midnight on the M25

Time to update my post with added tachometer and replacement gear shifter shroud.

Always bugged me that the illumination in these doesn't match between the dash and the heater controls...pick green or red...one or the other...

...Why is the 4 on the rev counter in a smaller typeface than the rest?

Well fuck. I have to get a new car now, I can never look at it the same again.

Nah, just adds to the delightfully slightly shonky nature of the car, doesn't it...

Numbers applied to the dial using the same method employed to adorn this with holes.

 

I mean, they made an effort with the speedometer. It shows symmetry and a certain degree of panache (even if it doesn't actually fit in the aperture it was designed for). The tacho was given to the work experience kid, who was told to make it look good in MS-Paint.

Terrible quality......but you can see the very exciting centre dash area in the superb picasso
