types of dash

[rick151081]

right ive been on here nearly a year and i havent seen the type of dash that i had in my gsi so how many diffrent types of dash are there (and i dont mean colour )as the one that was in my gsi was like the mk3 but it had the extra pocket above the glove box like in the calibra so im confused was it a case of someone modding it or did thy do a differant type of dash

No mk3 had a dash with a pocket like that. Maybe you're thinking of the one under the glove box that some had?

 

[rick151081]

nope it was defo above the glove box mate i remember the car well as it was my first car and some c**t burnt it out on the driveway out side my house after thy nicked the stereo and box out of it

Never seen a mk3 have the extra pocket above the glove box..

+1

there are 2 styles, 1 with a passenger airbag and 1 without, never a pocket

 

[joycey]

Hmmmm this is weird lol

 

[kompo001]

Think it must have been a Cavalier dash, sure mine had it..............

Cav/Cally or MK2 dash, all it could have been.

The only other thing I can think of is the bottom shelf and the glove box above it. I'm sure lower spec models had a glove box without a lid.

Otherwise it'd be an early Calibra or Mk3 Low Spec Dash.

Mk3 Astras definately have never sported a pocket such as the Mk2 Astra.

Never seen an astra without a glove box, even the merit's had them

Had a hire car in Tenerife which was an opel which didn't have the door for the glove box, yet had air con. Remember it distinctly, was Rio Verde with a 1.6 Autobox. But then, if it was Euro spec, no chance of it working here anyway cos' it'd be on the wrong side!!
