    dashboards interchangeable?

    Good morning all,
    Can a LHD dashboard also be used in a RHD Stag? Or is the position of the vents a problem?
    Kind regards,
    Dieter - from Germany.

    Guten Tag Dieter

    Can I ask that from this question you are contemplating converting your car to LHD ? If the answer is Yes I think there will be much more to consider IF such a conversion is possible.

      Ray, the answer is "No". I have a spare dashboard, which is for a LHD Stag. A friend, who owns a RHD Stag, is thinking of buying it. Dieter.

        I guess it depends if he wants the gauges on his passenger side of the dashboard and the glove box in front of him

          Are we talking about the complete plastic covered dash here or as I suspect just the wooden dash that holds the instruments.. Referred as "Facia Panel" in the wiring diagrams.

            Yes, we are talking about the wooden facia panel only....

              It looks like it may work? As long as the vent hole and cluster hole are the same diameter. The vent fixing would need to be sorted and the rheostat would switch sides.. but like you I only have the LHD version to look at.

                nope. only the center console wood is the same. the rest are handed and they can't be swapped.

                  Not practical really, the height of the instrument fascia is about 130 mm at the inboard end vs about 120 at the outboard end, so it would have to turned upside down to swap between left and right apertures. This would need the positions of the fixing screws to be moved, plus some other holes as above. If you were intending to re-veneer it would be possible to fill unwanted holes and cut new ones but you'd probably not want to invest the hours needed to do this other than for a rare car where there was no prospect of finding a salvaged part. If I was doing this for a Stag I'd look for a salvaged part.

                    Pretty certain that Tony White will have a choice of RHD dash panels.

                      Yes, very likely - given that there are variations in holes for brake light, seat belt warning light, and hazard light switch it might help to send Tony a picture of the fascia you already have.
