Top of the mkII dash
 

Been looking at pics of the mkIIs dash, could someone tell me what the little door like thing is on top? On the mkI there's a heater vent there. What's behind that door? A gremlin? A portal to another world? A warp engine?

I'm thinking it might be suitable to mod as a home for my sat-nav?

ive always wanderd that on mine maybe there is a little hamster on its wheel in there running the real engine

sensor for the climate

Ah, so that would be redundant on mine then. Hmm. That could work. Cheers mate.

Hmmm....sounds like a plan!!! Not sure if its needed as part of the standard aircon though, worth checking before you strart tearing it out!

Good point, I wonder if the mkI has a sensor. I'll take a look while the dash is out on Thursday.

Have fun!!! Rather you than me in this weather!!

Thankfully I'll be in a workshop!

that little dome is the sunlight sensor for the automatic climate control, it needs to be in view of the sky for the climate control to work properly

Under the hatch there's a small void but you can run stuff up there. I had my Scangauge wired up to there inside the dash. It's fiddly but possible

Excellent. Thanks for confirming that mate. :thumbsup:
