I have spotted it and like it. But I will run out of dials to put in it. How many dials/instruments do I need in a 90 ??? I might even struggle to fill the dash consul.

Many many dials are needed you can never have too many. I have, fuel/temp/rev in the dash and then volts/clock/boost (filled the hole) in the raptor console. But you could also egt/oil-temp/oil-pressue/2nd battery etc lots of options.I have spotted it and like it. But I will run out of dials to put in it. How many dials/instruments do I need in a 90 ???

Maybe we are talking different things?
The one I'm on about is a metal part to replace the main instrument cluster. Ie no more dials, just more metal, and less splitting.
My defender is in bits. I spent some time welding up the heater duct, finding good versions of all the trim, etc. and then managed to find a raptor center console on Facebook, cheap.
I've still not had the heart to fit it... But then the bulkhead is still inside too.
If I still had a smashed up main instrument cluster, I'd go straight for the raptor one rather than swapping for another plastic one.

Oil temperature and pressure are good ones to have. EGT and boost pressure on a turbocharged engine, engine speed, volts and amps if you have lots of electrical extras, and a straightforward clock. Get whatever fits your application.

This is the bit I'm on about -
They are great, friend of mine has just fitted one to replace the brittle and crumbling plastic original. I am very very careful with mine but when it eventually breaks it will be immediately replaced with one of those.
