Got the dash out to lighten it a bit and do some work,removed the passenger airbag and with the help of some speed holes got it down to 6,7kg from the original 11,5kg (this is the bare dash with no vents trims etc) so saved 4,8kg or 42% which is quite good:
the dash skin weighs 940 grams:
front seats wiring removed:
I had bought and fitted this aftermarket mount for the gauges but fitment was worse than the original as it has no clips and being one piece its harder to retrim with my limited skill so just went back to the oem one I had before.
The problem with the oem was that it is way too tall and obstructs the view which was the reason why I went with the aftermarket option,so I have cut it and shortened it as much as I could and it's a lot better,from the driver view it's just in line with the end of the dashboard and doesn't poke out like before:
