Hey, i have this hole in my dash, just need some ideas of what i could do with that hole WITHOUT replacing the whole dash.....heres what it looks like...



thanks!!

 

well.... make a plate of some sort add some guages maybe?

first thing i thought of was a colored platic plate with a light under it... cut out letters for C R X and then power it up....bet it would look pretty cool. i can be ricey sometimes..... 80)

 

only thing i worry about is that is the heater duct, HOT air blows out through that, so, i don't want to put anything in there that shouldn't get too hot, gauges isn't too bad of an idea though, i'll see what ideas i get and go from there...

Okay manson you ricer ...LOL, just kidding, that would look neat but as you stated possibly on the ricey side. However you got me think that an LCD screen would look good in there.
Or a carbon fiber or brushed aluminum with gauges would look nice. Roll the carbon fiber and brushed aluminum in a bag with Manson's idea and cut out CIVIC or HONDA in the fiber or aluminum and put some colored plexy glass behind it.

Can I ask WTF is there a hole in the dash?

i'd probably have to write civic, it's a 4 door civic....could an lcd screen withstand the heat from the heater though, that's what i'm not too sure about...

 

Why is there a hole?

 

Thats where you need to install the rally computer!

Sonovabitch, everyones car is cleaner than mine.

 

just put a metal plate over it dude. hopefully a passenger doesn't hit their head on it during a collision...

 

looks like it would make a good tissue box!

 

when i bought the car, that hole was already there, don't know why, i just want something there that will look good and that can withstand some heat, i'm thinking about throwing a couple gauges in there, but i'm not sure yet...depends on if i get any other good ideas....

 

get a triple gauge pod and the some gauges in the bitch... might as well be functional and useful

 

put a couple guages in there and have somebody mold some fiberglass around it so it is flush.

 

I'd say a toaster or a PS2 YO!! nah why not get another dash......its not that hard of a swap

 

i've heard that it is kinda a hard swap and if you get it done, chances are it might rattle a little bit, so i figured i could just maybe make somethiing that would go in there, probably be a little quicker and a little more dress up for the interior...

 

i would add a sub in that hole

 

i would go w/ the lcd screen.. i would customize a metal plate in there and some heat wrap and then it wouldnt get really hot

 

CIVIC written on diamond plated steel &lt;~ Rice
Isn't that like a skin? Why not try to find a piece that size from another Civic at a junkyard and plug it, then use that leather/vinyl patch **** that makes it blend together. - Darrell

 

I bet there was a CD Changer There ... Also Dash swao is'nt that Hard a few hours in the Drive way and it can be done

 

i heard through some people that i bought the car from that there was an equalizer there, but, i don't know.....

 

Make a custom pod for a vafc, Then get a vtec motor

i'm already on top of that one....

 

b16a in a ef sedan NICE

You have the same 16" quantum tek wheels i have on my b16 crx

 

Just get a black dash, that blue one is ugly.

clean 4door

 

yeah, i got black mats, black center console, soon to have black seats, black dash would look good, but i don't want to replace the whole dash....

yeah, they're good wheels, i like them...

thanks for the comments on the car
