What’s missing from my dash ?

Post by alexb1969 »

Making a start on stripping out the dash on my 71 targa - it’s missing a few switches judging by the holes and wires going to them- what am I missing ?

Do you have your appropriate glovebox handbook?
Every instrument control and it’s position are shown on a handy diagram in there depending on export country of origin.

You have an aftermarket radio too by the looks of it. And a cracked dash, that’s going to be fun.
All the best.

Regards
Mike

My German spec car has a hole to the right of the steering wheel like the original picture. However, it was originally hidden under the aluminium dash trim and not actually used. I have now put it to good use as the indicator LED for my bluetooth adaptor indicator on the back of my Blaupunkt Frankfurt radio.
