After ordering my new interior from Dante's, I figured I'd better refurbish the instrument panel so it didn't look out of place!
So, I removed the panel, and dismantled it. (see pic of panel before removal)

I proceeded to utilize Lil Wendal's thread, and cleaned and tested all my switches, fitted the new chrome switch knobs, cleaned and painted the housing, and installed all the new bits and pieces I'd purchased.
I cleaned and painted all the gauge faces, and had my instrument man re-calibrate them all.
He also installed the tach digital circuit board, while I fitted the quartz conversion to the clock.
After testing all the gauges, he adjusted the speedo (which was out), and I re-assembled the panel.
I had also purchased a new lense kit, and bezel kit from BEA.
Now she's all assembled (see pic), I'll just wait for my new interior to arrive (should be in the next couple of days), Then it can all go back in the car!
