No, but I did buy one from S Africa last year when rebuilding my Fastback. Only comment I would make is to take care when buying as they don't all fit exactly or easily...........
Happy with mine, but it takes some work. |

I bought a LHD one from him for my wife's 70 Fastback. Quick shipping, excellent to deal with. Quality looked pretty good for the price. I'm happy.

Hi Guys,
Made more RHD dash but the Aus airmail shipping is still closed from RSA due to Covid.
Sorry but will get all orders off as soon as it opens again.
Till than
Herman

I bought one from Volkstory in Thailand. I have not installed it yet as my car is still in resto but the look and finish of it is super nice. I did a dry run with loose gauges and those fit great. The main difference I see from stock is that the one I bought did not have the speaker cutout in the middle and I'm going to leave it that way instead of trying to retrofit it. Considering these RHD dashpads are usually made of unobtainium, I'm supper happy with mine.
