Welcome skolalama

I'll be keen to see pics of your ride :thumpsup:
What sort of condition is it in, and what are your plans for it?

I've seen worse.

It's not about what you start with, it's about what you finish with. And the bigger the gap between the two the bigger the props you get :thumpsup:

GB wagons are quite rare here, and we never got that dash in Australia?
What gauges does it have in the cluster?

Both, but they have to be the JDM ones. I already have the other ones.

I think you'll have to get the dashboard support panel that it all bolts to if you want to change it?
And possibly the wiring too?

Yes, they have less fins in them. 2 in the centre instead of 3.

You can use door bottoms from the GA/GB sedan for a wagon if you cut off the window glass frame, swap them with the wagon ones and also swap over the glass.
I don't know if this helps any? But if gives you a wider amount of parts to look for.

have you got it already that louvers?..what is JDM.?

i like the edges of that louver and the way it is supported in your car. Its a little bit difficult to find a spare cheap car part like that.
