A guy down the road has one with this setup, but all the AC and and blower controles are there aswell!!! Nice mod as it leaves acers of space for gauges!!!

Never mind the heater controls, that is one seriously sexy car. £12K seems reasonable, What is the registration problem?  :Thumbs-up

Nice touch, but a fair bit of work. I don\'t know about knocking the controls with my elbow as I have to hold on tight to the steering wheel to keep it in a straight line because of the state of the UK roads.

£12k is the price in Japan. Make that £18.5K by the time it is road registered in the UK. Which it wouldnt as the car will not pass an SVA test!  :2Rolleyes

Seen this before, try doing a search on RX7Club forums about moving the controls.

Or you could always try what OJ did and try baking you own plastics. :D
