    MK1 center console inspiration

    I'm restomodding a Mk1 (bubble arched, Zetec on TBs, etc) and turning attention to the interior. The original six gauge cluster is nice but I want to replace the clocks to modern Stack gauges. The modern gauges are easier to read without wearing glasses. I've brought the cluster binnacle plate from Motorsport Tools along with a Mk2 alloy center console panel. The cluster will only fit two 52mm aux so I think I'll run four aux's along the top of the console. Then a row of switches for everything except for indicators, then battery isolation, ignition, start button, etc. I'm going to clean up the steering column cover by fabricating a carbon one so it only has the indicator stalk.

    That's the plan anyway. So looking for some inspiration of layout and order but haven't found anything that I really like on Google or Pinterest.

    Would appreciate any photos or ideas if others have already done the same or similar.

    Cheers Foeg
