jimmyrjm Posted May 26, 2016 Report Share Posted May 26, 2016 Hi, I am placing my dashboard in my Triumph GT6 MK3, and I am struggling to see what type of screws, bolts and plates etc to use for the dashboard. I have attached a picture. Hope anyone can help. Thanks, Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dougbgt6 Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Canley Classics spares are always useful as they have diagrams of how stuff fits together. http://www.canleyclassics.com/triumph-gt6-mkiii-facia-panelsg There is a second diagram named facia fitting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have this diagram in a general arrangement drawing book that I have created for the whole car and is very helpful, I just had a look at the part numbers on the Canley Classic link that you provided which will be of much use to be, just hope I can source the parts as I seem to have lost the originals when I took the car apart. Thanks again! Kind regards, Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AidanT Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 Hi. If they are anything like the mk1 they are very difficult to find. You can try people like Bresco but you may have to try breakers like spitfire graveyard Best to spend a day finding the originals Aidan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bonnett Posted May 27, 2016 Report Share Posted May 27, 2016 I've still got a couple of shells. I'm away at present but when I get back I'll check and see if the fittings are on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Bonnett Posted June 4, 2016 Report Share Posted June 4, 2016 Hi Jim, I do indeed have the fixings. Nothing special about them and easily obtainable I would have thought. But you are welcome to these if they would help. rgds John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for the confusion. I have actually made the plates yesterday and they work well so my problem is solved . But thank you very much for your time, help and generosity and everyone else who contributed to my question. Kind regards, Jim. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
