I am about to send my dashboard to the opposite end of the country to be refinished.
The only way to do this is in a dedicated van. So I've spent the last few months collecting up everything I might ever need retrimmed - and am going to do everything at once to make it worthwhile.
It occurred to me, when all is finished, I will have a complete spare dashboard and fascia - both notoriously difficult items to post.
So if anybody wants a dashboard and/or a fascia, please let me know. Its in pretty good condition, obviously its 20 years old.
Cost is a bit hard to work out. I believe 2-3 NOS ones popped up and were on sale for £650 but god knows what the shipping was. Really I am looking for something to cover the item and the costs of removing, packing and shipping, but moreso to help out with my courier costs so I can finish my car.
So I would hazard £500 INCLUDING shipping? I am open to offers or comments on this one. It can really be anywhere in the country because the van is leaving Scotland (Edinburgh), passing through Gloucestershire to pick up some unwieldy parts, and ending up Southend-on-Sea, then coming back again, probably by a different route 2 weeks or so later. So most anything is possible, as he'll have other stops to make.
As for the fascia, the last eBay fascia I am aware of went for somewhere upwards of £220. This is easier to ship but again its fragile so if you wanted it on the dedicated van, say, £150 shipped?
As per LEC etiquette, first come first served and I will pay 1% of sale to LEC. This is subject to location - obviously if you live somewhere that necessitates a 400 mile detour, the courier cost may alter on me.
