    Smile RHD conversion at my Mk1 Cabrio

    Hi Guys,

    I finally started with the LHD to RHD conversion of my Golf Mk1 carbio.
    Drove at easter to Sydney to pick up the dash, steering column and some trims at Camden GTI (thanks for that Matt)
    All the pics can be seen here:

    Interesting putting a Mk4 dash in the Mk1. Any particular reason other than you must love wiring
    Lots of MK 1 Scirocco's...

    If it aint a MK 1 then it must be a donor car ??

    Cheers,
    Grant...

    A few years ago there used to be a company called deutsche car in the UK(I will check the spelling).

    They used to exchange parts from one VW to another.

    They used to have a G60 Cabrio with a MK2 dash seats etc.

    Will have a look to see if I can find any pictures.

    Your conversion looks very good.....and lots of hard work!

    Thank you
    at the first rebuilt the was not planed to fit a MK4 dash, but my mate came over with one and I thought lets try it. cause everyone in germany got the Audi TT in it. That was to expensive, so I said make something different. It fits, but it is a **** lot of work, some trims needs to be done with fibre glass.
    I really like the dash, it suits well. especially with the 1.8T

    A dash from Mk2 is easy to fit in to. not a big deal.
    There will be more work done on it. the engine is temporary, I going to built a 1.8T with GT28 on it, but not now.

    Update,

    I haven't done much for a very long time, to many other things to do. Now finally I get back in to it.

    You have a fluffy blue dash?

    Don't know whether to applaud or shake my head but at least it's different.
