Lightbulb Just Wondering...

I finally got both of my carts (1- Gas Club Car, 1- Gas EZ-GO) running smoothly and dependably! Now for the fun stuff. First question is: Why are the dashes so danged far away from the driver? I cannot think of any safety issue... I want to fabricate a good looking dash extension that brings the guages, switches and glove boxes closer and more convenient.

So... Is there a problem with my plan? Has anyone done the mod? Got pics?

Thanks,
Michael~

These were originally designed as golf carts. The dash area is a great place to stow golf balls and tees, even a beer in one of the cupholders.
The dash makes a good place to put you foot up on, if it was any closer it would not work well as a foot rest.
There have been a lot of people here that have converted their carts to personal vehicles for pleasure cruising and have done lots of cool mods to the dash.
I have not seen any who have brought the dash out closer to the operator, maybe yours will be the first.
Be sure to post up some photos as there will be lots of interest in the project.

i saw a yamaha cart were they had fabbed the dash closer, it looked great wish I had pics of it. I think it's a great idea, been thinking about doing that for awhile on my cart but I keep thinking I need to do the cage first. if I weren't so lazy maybe i'd get around to some of this stuff.
