I just installed the dash pad today I have been describing. It's a little project for sure. The 5 screw holes I had to re-punch were pretty tough to get in just the right place without punching multiple holes and without bunching the material. The 2 screw holes one on the right and one on the left that hold the thin ends of the pad to the dash were particularly tough. They have a severe angle on them to pull the pad flush with the dash face. It took me about 3 hours to carefully get it installed with the best fit possible and to my satisfaction. I think it looks almost as good as what I likely would have received from Just Dash's at 1/3 the cost. Some work involved in the installation, but possibly no different than a Just Dash's restoration. I will post some pics next time we have a nice day here. Engine-Ear, did you have a chance to look at the vinyl sample I sent?
