Pretty sure Zach said he had one. Zach? Anyway, looking to have a better looking dash without spending huge bucks. American Dash Caps always advertises one on eBay for $77. Anybody use one? Are they noticeably different from a rebuilt one like Camp 914 sells? Ever see one that eliminates the ash tray ? Pretty sure I've seen that option on "real" dash replacements but nor sure if anybody offers it in a cap.

I purchased and installed a Coverlay brand dash cap in May of this year. I thought the fit was perfect the only thing I ended up " fixing " was I had to shim the ash tray mount to move the ash tray down to clear the cover. I don't have any good pictures but between the new dash vinyl/foam and the Coverlay the dash looks great. No it won't get past the concours crowd but I'm not interested in that.

I feel the same way...no need to get past 914 concours guys, but does it look "right" to...I dunno...some harsh critics at an "all car" show that don't know a 914 from a '65 Chevelle?
