Default Lightweight dashes - lets see 'em!

Looking for inspiration on weight reduced dashes (in my case using stock cluster & heater)... let us see what you came up with on your car

the early 944 dashboard (bare complete panel) weighs under 7 lbs...with all the gauges installed it's probably 10 total.

what year is your car?
