I'm looking for all input (good or bad...its all welcome....I can't be my own critic thru this whole thing). Since I've been looking at this thing for so long I've sort of become short-sighted. So, my ideas of proper proportion may not exactly be right. Or there may be an alternative to how I ended the dash at either door.....or even the center strip (from a 1303's dash) or better still an idea of materials (CF, aluminum and so on). Or a mini center console (been tossing that idea around alittle). Switch type/location, radio, glove box ideas are VERY welcome since that will be the next course once the 1st unit is built. Anything can be changed at this point since its the original idea. Its once I make the mold and start working my way from that point with a more finished unit its a little harder to incorporate changes from my oversight.

So pretty much I'm looking for ideas that maybe I haven't thought of or wouldn't occur to me since I've been focused on this style of dash (and what doesn't go into this one....may go into another pair that are on the back burner). Since once I'm finished my vert I may purchase either another 1302 or a 1303. That car will not have the same dash as this. But I will be making another unit for that one (as well as one for a friend's 1303....which will be using a full set of VDO aftermarket gauges....so that one will be different at the pod section....but may or may not....depending on the ideas I gather have the same main shape as the stock dash). So, any suggestions listed here that won't work with this dash can be used on the next one (sort of brainstorming for the next car....with everyones help....as well as taking notes on what I may have done wrong with the main one here).
