OK, I know Im not meant to post EOIs, but the admins in the Ceffy section and these For Sale area's arent around any more, so it's free man land.

Talking to Dorigecko last night about getting a batch of 100+ dash mats produced to suit the A31 dash. Conviniently I'm taking mine out today to replace the brake booster and I'm in no hurry to have it back in, since Ive got other shit both interior and engine bay that needs doing before Im rolling again.

Can I get a hands up of how many of you are interested in this ?

Ballpark figure is around 80-100 ea plus shipping, its hard to tell at this stage what the cost of them will be.

Probably going to be 50 in black and 50 in grey, but if anybody wants some weird ass color it may be possible to arange.

well, actually. yes.

they do.

limit 0.000001 per customer.

:D

it would definately be possible to get a lot of different colours made up, but the black and grey ones are from a GOOD supplier. the other one is a bit iffy, and their turnaround is pretty slow. but i don't really know of any cefiros with pink dashes?

with the good supplier ones, you can cut into them for gauge fitment and stuff and it won't fall apart.

either way, it will be a moulded carpet with vents cut in and the edges tightly overlocked, and needs to come from a custom mould. hence the $80-100 asking price. consider normal everyday car dashmats are around 60 bucks, i reckon it's reasonably priced.

awesome news!!

spoke to the supplier today, they reckon as soon as we get the dash moulded and the mould cleaned up and smoothed, they can mould and cut it. they reckon a turn-around of an order should only be about two weeks.

Nic buddy, ten four!!!

sweet.

bit of an update:

the dashboard will be professionally moulded by.. well.. a professional dashboard mould maker. mould goes down in two weeks, mould will take 1 week, essentially, i'm expecting the first stock to be in a months time. and will be a readily available thing to buy for ANYONE -- through me. And ebay.

Prices will be fixed at AUD$85 including GST + postage. since they weigh about 300 grams, it will be bugger all. however, international will be extra of course.

Have also been contemplating having the Cefiro logo actually embroided into the dashmat. I'll update as i progress, but i reckon that'd be shit-hot and i could probably hook that up.

Not too long to go now ladies and gents!!

the victim dash will be heading down thursday, work should start friday on the making of the mould. should be done by the following thursday. then, 30 initial units will be made, 15 in black, 15 in charcoal, taking a few days tops.

Each dashmat will come with good quality velcro, and a receipt.

custom finishing touches can be organized as an additional service, so if you guys want something that rocks and compliments your car (coloured edging, custom embroidered emblems), PM me and I'm sure I can make it happen!

Once the first batch come through, I will post pictures of awesomeness. They'll also be going on eBay at some stage, so stay tuned for updates.

Pre-orders welcome - just drop me a PM with name and address, and I will set a mat aside as soon as they arrive.

Thank you!

--Jason.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
