Tuning dashboard VAZ 2114

Today, many motorists are interested in tuning the VAZ 2114 panel. This is due to its design, which is perfect for this activity.

In general, if we talk about the 2114th model, it should be noted that it is one of the last, well-thought-out and executed models of the VAZ “family” car. For the majority in general, and interior improvements in particular, this is just a replacement for seat covers.

However, this is a deep delusion, there are many objects in the salon that can be beautifully updated. Throughout the history of the VAZ 2114 brand, it was believed that interior tuning is a large-scale, multi-level set of works, which consists of many different actions to improve various elements and, of course, among others, the instrument panel.

Comprehensive modernization of the instrument panel VAZ-2114: first steps

Most often, the complex of works on improvement is important and necessary, but, at the same time, an interesting and serious occupation. The main task is to choose the right details and arrange them beautifully. All actions that relate to various updates, it is always better to think ahead, in advance.

As a result, this will avoid unnecessary mistakes and disturbing fuss. The right decision will be to draw up a work plan that you will follow and thanks to which you will not make mistakes, and the whole process will be a pleasure for you.

Dashboard tuning can be performed in the following sequence:

1. First you need to disassemble the car "device". How to remove should know every motorist. There is nothing complicated here, everything is quite clear, and the process itself does not require special skills or knowledge.
2. Then you need to refine the elements and parts. There can always be many nuances here. They depend on what you want to change and improve in your car. Everything should be thought out very carefully.
3. In the end, you need to install the converted, updated "panel" in place.

How easy it is to update the "tidy" VAZ 2114

Improving the dashboard of the 2114 is actually not as complicated as it might seem at first glance. Buying such a "device" is quite simple. You should consider what options the owners can use to update the VAZ 2114 wardrobe (examples in the photo and video).

1. AMS. This model has several features.

• for starters, it is worth noting that you can order its design yourself;
• this panel is equipped with an integrated oil indicator, which is not available in the classic version. Its appearance is connected with the very persistent requests of many motorists to install this "component" in the standard configuration.
• such a dashboard looks more interesting due to the color scales with chrome trim.

2.PRO-SPORT. This "tidy" is made as an overlay for the instrument panel on the presented model. The updated design of this device gives them an impressive, completely new look. There are two options for its execution: with a light and dark substrate. The backlight of the VAZ 2114 panel has a special brightness control, but there is only one color - blue. The scales are glued after mounting the insert. This is to give this element of the machine an original look.

3. AMS-2. The central instrument was the tachometer, which was moved from the left to the center. The white scales create an overall sporty look for the entire panel. This allows you to quickly read the necessary information from it. The backlight has been redone, LEDs are used, with the help of which it is not difficult to read information at night. Installation is recommended to be carried out by qualified specialists, since during its installation a significant “re-planning” of the classical model is provided.

4 STREET STORM. The main feature of this model is its color scheme. In the classic arrangement of devices, they did not change anything,

The emphasis was on color. The “appearance” of the dashboard has undergone certain changes, however, at the same time, its style harmoniously fits into the existing interior. It should be noted another feature of this model is its backlight. During the day it is light with red symbols. In the dark, you can easily change not only the brightness, but also the color.

5. "Northern wind". This model is different in appearance. The developers have shown that even with the standard arrangement of devices, the entire panel looks dynamic and bright. It clearly shows sporting features. The backlight color depends on the shade of the insert scales.

Tuning for fun

The main thing in the process of modernizing any car is spectacularity. Each owner would like his car to look original and, at the same time, to be comfortable in it. Oddly enough, but one of the favorite parts for fans is considered to be the instrument panel. It can be modified in different ways and, thus, to distinguish your own car from a huge number of similar machines.

At the initial stage, it is necessary to prepare the material for work. Replacing the VAZ 2114 panel or its original update requires dismantling the standard panel. It will be necessary to remove only the protective glass of the speedometer. It's important not to break it. After removing the protective glass, you need to "uninstall" the arrows pointers.

It is important to be careful, because the arrows are very fragile. After that, we pull out the standard tab. Then you need to change the light bulbs. The standard ones were green, the purchased ones will be blue. We replace standard light bulbs with purchased ones, then we check how they work. After that, set up a new tab.

All this will look very impressive. At the end, we install arrows-pointers and a protective glass. If you modify your car in this way, it will look very beautiful.

Illumination of arrows: beautiful and original

Considering the regular "VAZ" you come to a certain despondency. The panel itself glows green, the heater backlight is yellow, the buttons are green, and the indication is generally orange. Such a combination of shades does not suit many owners, and often they think about a complete change in the interior lighting of the car.

Riding at night, and, at the same time, not seeing the instruments is a dangerous and thankless task. In this situation, you can make each arrow glow using a red LED. To do this, you need to disassemble the instrument panel, put it under the arrows on the red LED and put on it a special heat shrink. This will help not to scatter the red light, it will shine directly.

The wires from each must be brought out of the shield and then hooked to the heater backlight wires. After that, the arrows will glow with a rich, bright red light.

To begin with, the question arises: what is it good for? The old panel is made, to put it mildly, in a fast way: the steering wheel covers part of the instruments, the “tidy” itself is reflected on the windshield at night, thus turning the road into a computer quest.

Plastic, or rather, its quality, does not stand up to criticism. After passing several hundred kilometers, the entire cabin is filled with an obsessive creak and a terrible roar. Later, the glove compartment begins to open. The ventilation is poor, it is cold inside the car in winter. However, all these problems are solvable. However, is it worth buying a car and immediately thinking about repairing it?

Another thing is europanel. She looks modern and trendy. The material is softer and richer. It is certainly less noisy. Ventilation is also on the level.

Domestic assembly is felt everywhere. The airflow control levers move tight, do not reach the edges of the slots. There are also other little things: somewhere the gap is large, something else falls off there, the glove compartment sometimes opens by itself. But in terms of quantity and frequency, this is completely incomparable with the old version.

In addition, several drawers for small things warm the soul. - this is a modern and original solution to many problems associated with the "tidy" of domestic cars.
