ATTN: Allan

I read on the Lambo board that there is a way to cut out part of the wall behind the seat, move it back like 5" and then move the seat track back, but the site is blocked on Fchat so I cant really link to that thread. Maybe Allan can Link you there somehow, or tell you more about it.

As for the dash, the later dash should fit fairly painlessley in an older Diablo, Id go with the 6.0 dash as it is very nice and IMO better than the Murcielago dash.
I guess the mounting points would be the same for all years, but Im not to sure about how the guages would fit, the stereo either. Im sure Allan would have some Info on this too.

 

The 6.0 dash is completely different and would require a major cash outlay. I would go to a custom shop and have them fabricate a smaller pod using the existing gauges. Koenig also offers a kit.

There is a shelf behind the seat for storage which can be removed, allowing you to move the seat back farther several inches.

 

I believe it is about the same, but all the wiring needs to be changed.

 

Its actually pretty expensive from what i hear, you need a dash pod, all new gauges, wiring and labor.

 

Any new factory dash will cost a bundle. Especially if it has DOT approved airbags. Do not assume a 6.0 dash will bolt in. The thing must have alot of sensors that will now have nowhere to be plugged into.


A custom crushed purple velvet dash would be smokin. LOL It is a Lambo. remember. Just kidding.


You can re-install the seat to find the extra added inches.

 

I took a look under the dash of my 6.0 and there really isnt a whole lot going on under there.In fact I can change the bulbs on the dash lights by just reaching up underneath it.It seems there is very little wiring.
