Didn't the original stuff have more of a thin plastic membrane on it for the upper dash section?

Yep, that's what I remember ... some kind of thin crinkly (probably from age) plastic skin with like threads of something running through it.

I'm fully expecting this heavy tar paper to fall off first exposure to hot weather, humidity and road vibration.

I'm not having a lot of luck lately finding things seem somewhere close to OEM.
