One of the last things to do in the interior of my 2.2L 'S' powered car......

Looking for a source for the thin foam tape used to affix the basket weave covered metal dash face to the dash. Needs to be very thin for obvious reasons.

Where can I purchase similar foam tape?

Thanks!

Doug:

I just installed a new radio with a backing plate and was looking for a similar product.

While not exactly foam, I found some 3M double sided industrial strength tape at Lowes that matched the thickness perfectly.

Looks like McMaster Carr also has some various thickness tapes....

I used clear (very thin) velcro so they can come off if necessary.

It works great and firm.
