    Default AE86 dash into KE

    Car - Daihatsu Charmant

    motor - 4A

    use - Street/drift

    problem - No interior

    occurs/started when - I bought it

    personal situation -

    I bought a Daihatsu Charmant which is very close to KE70 I think anyway I didn't get all of the wiring with it but I got a full AE86 wiring loom so I was gonna try fit all AE86 stuff to it. I'm hoping to fit the cracked dash from my Trueno to it, but the car doesn't use the bar from pillar to pillar like AE86 but mounts the steering column to a bracket coming from the bulkhead. Anybody try something like this before? Any tips? I'm talking about the safety pad and clocks and glove box etc.

    Here's a pic

    bags of zip ties, you;re going to need two of the big ones. for what it's worth i only hooked up one wire from the 4AGE loom up to my instrument cluster, and it was the speed sensor wire, and it didn't work.

    I'm missing the relay box that mounts onto the battery tie down bracket and I have the wiring and spare dash and parts for AE86 are much easier to find than for KEs or Charmants. Reason for the Charmant is for wrecking.

    no dash.... Who needs to now how much fuel you have or how fast you are going..

    No dash FTW and a milk crate for your glove box.... Held in with zippy ties of corse..
    OR... just leave whats aready in it. IN IT...
