Hi, I am hoping someone can post some photos of what the interior hinges look like for a 1977 Fiat Spider.
I have the glovebox and the door but no lock or hinges.
Any help appreciated

you should find a 4 holes with thread inserts for hinge mounting. the glove box has holes cut in it for the hinge.

I think i got the dash from Vicks. I did the wood myself using the wood from an 1890s english piano.
