914World.com _ FS/WTB: 914 Parts _ Can't go naked WTB protection

Posted by: porbmw Sep 10 2012, 11:44 AM

Looks like daughter's car will be staying outside, year long....so need to get a little protection from the sun.
Will need a dash top cover....there are signs of it starting to fade.
Any vendors here on theworld...or recommended elsewhere.

While we are on the topic of protecting vinyl, any products out there that help prolong the life of the vinyl on these old cars.

Thanks

Also get a good Covercraft all weather cover for it - especially up there. I keep one on my 85 BMW 325e which is outside in SoCal & it withstands the sun, wind & rain we get here for 4+ years now (IIRC they're a 5 or 7 year guarantee).

Many vendors carry them, not sure if any on here......maybe GPR? ...or AA? Shop price since they're all selling the same product with differing mark-ups.

Eckler's Automotion has a good price on Dash Caps.

Their covers are pricey, but OK...

I think Jonathan at GPR has one in stock.

I have a new Coverlay dash cap in stock. You might hold out for the closest one you can find, shipping will probly be oversize.
