I got mine from Krazy Horse, they can get them made with the 4-bolt pattern of the Brooklands wheel.



And KH does excellent work! Got my spacer from them also.

Beautiful car! I never had the option for the headrest and I’m slightly tempted to look at something aftermarket. I think I prefer the look without, but am also pretty sure the bare roll bars there for safety will be the the thing that kills me with a head injury if ever I have an accident...

Nice looking car JohnMat, I like the heritage dash with that as well.

I have the roll hoop headrests GregA10, it was suggested to me that a rear end shunt would smash the back of your skull in without them, that could be right? It was also suggested that I should wear a crash helmet rather than have headrests for the same reason, then someone else said that with seat belts and a crash helmet but no HANS device, you could break your neck........ It seems that whatever you do something bad could happen. I have headrests and no crash helmet (mostly) and that seems to work well, unless the weather is really bad when a helmet and visor would be nice but takes up a lot of room when you don't want it on. There is no perfect answer.

The color of the Heritage dash works so well with the biscuit leather and cream colored Brooklands steering wheel. Very nice combination.

Thanks for posting.

It does indeed. I really didn't like it as an option, I felt it took away from the "vintage" (and also fighter plane) look of the thing, but then I was considering darker interior. On JohnMat's car it looks beautiful, very very elegant.

Greg I sse you have your satnav on a suction mount on the screen. See Chris's dash on the post after your 1st post. He has a Ram ball mount lower left of speedo, a much neater & rigid solution & its hidden under tonneau when parked. He also has a clock mounted in front of the wheel as I have. I dont have my car nearby to check the thread size. You also need a appropriate double socket arm to suit.

It's a RAM 1ā€ tough-ball, M6-1 fitting. RAM-RAP-B-379U-M616 which for the standard dash fits into one of the M6 dash panel mounting holes. You'll need to check if there's a suitable bolthole you can use for the Heritage dash.

For info, it's listed in the Alternative Parts List which is available from the MTWC website at https://www.mtwc.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/Updated-list-5-Feb-2021-PDF.pdf

The clock is simply stuck on with velcro: https://time4bikes.com/British-Made-VerSa-Darkside-Billet-Casing-with-Black-Clock

Thanks! My wife is an interior designer and helped me with the color choices. Our goal was to give the car an elegant and classy vintage look. The one I test drove was bright blue with a red leather and while striking was not the look we wanted!

It works well with the heritage dash, same size bolts. If you look in my photos you can see my sunglasses hanging from the RAM ball.
I did have to use Loctite to stop it coming loose.
