lets see those dashs!

Offroad VW based vehicles have problems/insights all their own. Not to mention the knowledge gained in VW durability.

Hot, humid air is less dense than cooler, drier air. This can allow a golf ball to fly through the air with greater ease, as there won't be as much resistance on the ball.

Some awsome dashes there!!!

I would like to submit my dash for the worst dash award... It is a mental picture...

Take a Super beatle, back it in the sun from 1974 through 2007, Add switches and radios as needed, sick the spiders, mice, and dust bunnies on it... It looks like that only worse.

give a man a watch and he'll allways know what time it is. give him two and he can never be sure again.

Things are rarely just crazy enough to work, but they're frequently just crazy enough to fail hilariously.

had to sign a NDC with mercedez benz to make sure i don't start producing cars of this caliber, might just put them out of buisness. I'm too airheaded not to have one.

I like the dome light. Is that a laminated glass windshield? I ask because I work with glass full time, I cut one for a rail I had few years ago, welded in small angle iron for a pinch weld and then used catepilar gasket to hold the windshiled, I used bronze colored glass, great in the sun really sucked at night for me anyhow. I was hoping I still had some pics of it but I can't find them. that was about 5 years ago though.

fuel guage

the fuel guage is nice and the other rails had low fuel lights that worked great except the R1 when it came on you had 1/2 mile at 3/4 throttle and hope the passenger was blowing behind you for more momentum. I ran out of fuel in that rail once and had to do the walk of shame to the camp site, it was a good thing I was only a mile out. The really nice feature about these stock dashes is if you have a motor problem (like a street car) you can run a diagnosis of the fuel injection and ignition system through the dash.
