Swift dashboard won't fit without lopping about 15cm off it. If you don't want to make major modifications then Hatch and Alto dashboards fit with a minimum of fuss. Dimensions of Daihatsu kei cars are also the same, so they could be suitable.

85-88 for Aussie models, or right up to the mid 90's if you get one from an import.

more trying to make a 1 stop shop for all dashs that fit, so if people could list the dashes (including year) that fits it would be great.

been searching over the forum for a dash that looks something like this. cant remember who had it and the centre part with all the air con controls and radio was a piece of wood they put in to fill up the hole.

Most likely from a mid-90's Alto Works model.

I have a black Hatch dash in one of my Red MBs. It has Hatch wiring loom. You must use external voltage regulator and hatch alternator, and you get two speed wipers.

The picture you refered to is in the Albury Cruise 2012 Gallery. The lump of wood was a rush job drink and 2-way holder for the first Albury cruise but it still gets used occasionaly it just slips into the dash pocket :roll:

I have an 84 Hatch dash in my ute. I used the cluster wiring loom from the Hatch and it plugged straight into the rest of the MB loom - means I get to keep intermittent wipers and the MB alternator.

They're physically the same, yes. The only difference is that some models have intermittent wipers and others don't.
