Thanks guys, much appreciated!
what lucky said only i wrap the plug in fiberglass before i put it in the hole and i would use more than one layer on the back if your going to be cutting through the repairs adam
look at the thinckness of the ply wood , go buy some of the same thickness , or approx thickness - cut out "plugs " take a sander and grind the glass holes inside - to apox a 45 deg angle ( basicly bevil the inside ) and do the same to the out side edges of the plugs
ok now place plug in hole and duct tape the back side so the plug doesn't slip out the back door
Paint reisin all around the plug and hole - be liberal - now take some cut up mat ( 1/2 pieces and stick them all around the inside of the bevels , but not all the way to the top -- paint with resin again - liberal but not to sloppy , make sure all glass is well penitrated - now take some glass strip and layer it across the plug to the begining of the hole and keep painting with resin , keep doing this until the hole is filled and there is no more bevile ( like two layers ) let dry , grind , sand , block - and fill with bondo on the imperfections and sand again - till your surface is flat and you have nice transition - then i like to cut one strip the full leanth of the rear of dash and sand the back panel and put one layer across the back of the dash for cleanlyness hope this helps -
rember to read directions on the resin - for optium set up times
Nuff said right there
