I did a lot of research on this aspect Rog! After the paint job, I reckon that the dash is the most important feature - as others notice it and as you sit in the car.

Forgot about that one Warren didn't use the MG warning light ( second for right ) went for the traditional single lights.

A few more Rog. This is becoming a useful thread. I personally like the flat dash, traditional style. Here are some variations however ... a classic 60s style, wooden one and a carbon fibre laminate.

One thing i have been noticing is how different the steering column location is on each car. Some kits have the column quite low with room for a small gauge above and others have the column up much higher.

With my car, my column is almost touching the the top of the dash. I cant get it any lower without the wheel getting too close to the seat. I assume it all comes down to how low the seat mounts are and how high the chassis rails are.
