Hi,

Dash is coverd with FLOCK, the same material is used in racing cars work in progress. incomming: - electric opening for front hood - hand brake warning light instalation BTW does anybody know if its possible to make 944 fuel gauge work with 1303 sender (with fuel reserve light)? |

Flocking looks good!
I pasted the pic links into the browser to see them, then they appeared in the message, odd! Re: sender, you could probably just fit the Porsche sender in your tank...

Kuna,
I followed Ricola's advice and was able to view your pictures. I right-clicked on the picture frame and then selected properties. I then pasted the address into another browser page. Your dash looks great! How did you build up the area for the 944 gauges? Do you have any pictures of the making of he dash? Randy

very nice,
I have a parts car (924) coming a month or two from now, and I plan on using the instruments in my ghia. It is nice to see that somen=one else has done this. Were there any particular areas that you had trouble with? Rob |

I've seen a Porsche sender used in a standard bug before, the bolt pattern was near enough the same, just had to make up a spacer (about 2") so the tube sender doesn't sit on the bottom of the tank...

how long does the sender need to be. a ghia sender may work, and they are the tube type.
(I have a spare that I can measure to compare) Also, plug in your lever type sender to see if it works. You never know unless you try. Rob |

Does the speedo cable from a Beetle/Type 3 just fit straight into the 924/944 speeedometer?
