While the existing dash has extra space for buttons and indicators, and even has a 12 volt socket, the buttons are a weird shape and cannot be found in local shops or with the correct symbols. Time to design a new dash.
It’s a long search for new buttons and indicators, we need a wide range of symbols. When found, it’s time for the design. Besides the speedometer and so on, only one thing is being re-used: the ignition switch.
The rectangular spaces will have frames for 3 buttons each. At the top right, there’s room for a dual USB-charger. De small circles at the top will hold indicators.
The dash itself is being laser-cut in somewhat thicker steel than the original. The round holes for speedometer have a flange, which we cannot simply reproduce, so we’ll just weld something in place. We’ll use black vinyl as the cover later on.
Laser cut, with flanges at the sides 
Thin metal circle flange welded on 
This should work!
