Default K10 interior from RC Addict

After having the seat and dash sit on my bench for a month or so I finally got around to putting the start to an interior into my K10.

The seat only took a minor modification to the bottom retainer piece that holds the cage on. Had to clip the top nubs off to allow the seat to be far enough back. Ran 2 screws through the provided holes in the bench seat and they snugged right up with no need for lock nuts.


The dash went in with minimal issues. I wasn't too impressed with the steering wheel that came with the dash so I replaced it with one from the Axial interior detail sprew. A few touches with the Testors silver paint pen made a big difference. And yes, I'm aware it's a K5 dash in a K10. I need to get RCAddict the picture I have of the K10 dash I found. (Maybe they would be interested in offering the proper dash.)


I would have liked to see a little more space on the dash to actually secure it to the shell. Maybe a fin which extended deeper into the hood. I ended up running a small bead of E6000 along the top edge that seats at the base of the windsheild. Then ran a couple of beads around the dash where it met the shell. Seems to be snug now.

Right now it's just a temporary solution to keep the dirt out. Looking for other solutions at this time. Baby steps man! baby steps!

I did see that they do offer front inner fenders with a floor pan built in. But $50 is kind of steep compared to the $3 tupperware inner fenders I made myself.

Once I get my sliders figured out I'll worry more about finishing the floor.

Looks OK, but the dash should definitely be wider.

Yeah, I get mine much cheaper. First up some sliders to build on though.

Interior looks really good, dash could be little wider as noted, but looks way better than my non-existent interior that I should start on.

That builders inner fender setup is good deal for $25 with 3d printed main parts and cut drilled sheet, I'd buy it. You can make your own, but it takes time, gotta do what is best for you.

Don't be sorry. Wasn't trying to sound snarky. I saw that kit and considered it for the K5.

From the underside it looks narrow but it looks good through the windshield.
