quite a bit! a JDM dash like in pepper's ute went on E-Bay for about $300, and as far as the wheel go's 240 or 260z steering wheel look's allmost the same and probly more commen.
Keep an eye out on E-Bay!!

it depends on the condish of the dash. mine is pretty much immaculate, and has the am/fm radio. i paid nearly double that for mine.
they dont come up very often, and when they do its normally just the fascia or they are missing bits. get onto tokyo2u on ebay and ask him to keep an eye out for you. i have found him very good to deal with and will help you in any way he can. thats the same as mine dash and steering wheel. some might say that my wheel is a 120y item, but going of the pic above it seems pretty b110 to me. craig (tokyo2u) has also confirmed mine came from a b110. my stuff ![]() ![]() there are 2 different types of this dash. one has a single hump this one as you can see has the double hump. also the speedo's were a bit diffferent on each model. dodgeman can probably elaborate on this as he has both types.

The picture below was shamelessly hijacked from this thread
Just to ensure we are all speaking the same language, the 'dash', which is the abreviation for 'dashboard' is the whole thing, door to door. It houses the instrument cluster which is made to look pretty by the covering instrument fascia & of course it also houses the glove box, the radio, the heater controls & the various switches etc. The JDM facelift Datsun Sunny Excellent GL & the same model Datsun Sunny 1200 shared the same instrument fascia & instrument cluster. The GX models of both also shared the GL's instrument fascia, but the instrument clusters came standard with a tachometer instead of a clock & a 180kph speedo instead of the GL's 160kph one. The tachometer was an option for the GL, so the only way to be sure that a tachometer equiped one of these is a GL or GX is to check the speedo. Note that the dash of the Sunny 1200 has a single hump that gently slopes away to the left & it uses a standard glove box lid while the Sunny Excellent has a double hump configuration & a unique glove box lid. The AM/FM radio was an option which my GL dash [the lower one] does not have. Peppers GL dash does have the radio option as well as the Tachometer option, [did I get that right Pepper?] but I have a 180kph GX speedo & AM radio to tempt him with in trade for the radio, however he is [probably wisely] choosing to keep his AM/FM one. Curses upon you Pepper. The cost? I imported two of these Excellent dash's [but not the Sunny 1200 one] with MattBigHat doing all the work & me doing all the paying. One was a GL & the other a GX, & by the time all of the fees & charges were paid, along with transport, repacking, yadda yadda yadda, there was not a lot of change from $2,000. This was when the dollar was not in much better shape than it is now. The GX one was provided to a fellow forum member & it will show up in a lovely 1200 GX in the not too far distant future. ![]() Quote: ROConnor wrote: All of the cars that used the L series engines, including the Sunny Excellent & others that used the A series engines but Excellent suspensions [like the US B210] as well as the B310 models, regardless of engine or suspension, all used the larger diameter shaft. The 1000, 1200 & 120Y are unique in Australia with this smaller diameter shaft & only the 1200 & 120Y can interchange steering wheels due to the different spacing of the blinker cancelling pins in the 1000 models. So the steering wheels from any of the big shaft models can not be interchanged onto the three small shaft models, even if you could match up the blinker canceling pin width.

I thought that the $950 Facelift bonnet had a scruffy Ute attached to it which, if sold separately, would help make the bonnet purchase less painfull. You can view topic.
