Funny...I am at the same stage with the dash and have arrived at the same conclusions.
At a glance, it looks like the P1800 dash could be made to fit. And I fully agree it would be the ideal choice.
But then when I got to trying to make it work, it requires not only all new dash metal, but also re-designing all the HVAC stuff. Just not up to that especially as the design intent is to have as few bespoke parts as possible for future maintenance.
So, ended up with this plan and hope to blend in some retro with wood accents
Really look forward to your updates. Wish mine was going as fast as yours.

Yeah, that looks about right. Since I have to add a bunch of material to the top of the E30 dash to get it to fit the windshield contour, I’m going to add the design “lines” that the Amazon pad had in it. I’m also going to add polished aluminum accents to match the Amazon dash (chrome). Finally, I’m going to delete the E30 drop down glove box and add a parcel tray instead (I think).
