Early 240 dash top instrument binnacle on Tradera
 
Nothing to do with me, but thought I'd share in case anyone on here interested.

Seems to be a rare instrument pod that mounts on top of the dash of the early 240s. Seller states it mounts over where the dash-top speaker is fitted. I've only ever seen one in a brochure before, I think mounted to a 242 GT.

Obviously do your own research before bidding.

The sneller status "nya dash" which would lead me to gelieve it's for the new dash. But the new dash was already equipped with possibillity to fit 5 Gauges!!!! Hmmmmm.....

Yep, it clips into the hole for the centre speaker on top of the dash, giving you up to 8 auxiliary gauges. super rare and I've wanted one for years.

I'd bid, but tradera won't allow me to register as I'm not scandinavian.

Wooble you can register, I have registered and I know others have on here also. Give it a go.

Kind regards
Lucien

I tried last year, I got an email back saying I was denied registration because I was located outside scandinavia. Somebody told me that you could register outside scandinavia in the past, but now they don't allow outside registrations?

Hi Wooble, I registered about a year ago. I did have some problem with them not being able to verify my information. I'm in to vintage Husqvarna's too so Sweden is a useful stomping ground for me. I persevered.

Anyway the instrument bin sold for £330. It must be rarer than I thought!

Kind regards
Lucien

Yes that's obvious. But the add said new dash so my querie was what the need would be to have in total 8 gauges in a 240 dash ie 3 of them on top. Thanks anyway for your concern.

Is Lucien showing the same top-dash fitted triple gauge box?

wooble Oct 10th, 2012 10:14

Yep, that's the same one. The tradera one seemed to be missing the plastic faceplate

There is a place that makes them might be worth asking how much a group order would be if there was enough intrest
