I am just curious what the collective brain trust thinks about old cracked dashpads for cores.
I know if couple sources now for new dashpads and none of them require a core. Is it time for me to trash my cores? |

The problem is the correct vinyl is not available. mainly because the process in which these were made the original vinyl is not thick enough to pull over the part.
It will not hide any sins, without the extra padding just dashes uses, and then you get a part that has to be stripped and prepped. It's a lot of messy work and the product you get is not correct (fatter). This is just what my research has come up with, but hey, maybe you'll have more luck with it. |
