Hi Guys,
I am faced with needing to fix up/replace the top dash pad. Will a dash cover (around $100-130) suffice? Or is it a better idea just to save that money and apply it towards the new pad ($550)? Thanks as always for the advice, Ross |

I have bought three caps and I have been pleased. The one with the grain, (I forget which manufacturer) is the one you want. I've seen some that look like coarse sandpaper and they aren't right.
americandashcaps was the seller. [Keep in mind that a cap is a short term solution to a cracked dash. I always highly recommend 914 Rubber products, and I will buy one of his dashes as soon as my /6 project is farther along.] |
