Scirocco Register

Hey guys and girls, I have a mk2 gt, and I've bought and fitted a brown Wolfsburg steering wheel which im very happy with. Problem is, my dash is black, so it looks a bit odd. So id like to know if a brown mk1 dash will fit straight into my mk2? And if not, how much work would be involved? Thanks for any help.

When not just put in a brown MK2 dash, assuming you can find one :)

Might be a very stupid question coming up so I apologize in advance, but did they do brown for mk2's? I thought it was only gold mk1's? Would love to be proven wrong though.

Yep, MK2 Storms in brown had a brown dash. In fact I have a spare, has a few cracks, pm me if interested.

The earlier non-body kit mk2 cars had a variety of coloured dashes, amongst which was brown (my '83 GTI has one). You could get the steering wheel re-covered or dyed black, which would probably be easier (and look better, unless you're also going to go for brown door cards, seat backs, carpets and parcel shelf).

why not fit a black period steering wheel cover?

First question: why would you want do do that?
Second question: have you considered the different sizes of the dashes and where the connections go?
I think it's a no-no from the start.

if its leather or similar i would definitely recommend dying it :)
