Got one waiting in the loft.Does anyone have a NEW dash pad left over from a project that that would sell? Our regular suppliers are out of stock and don't expect any soon. Any help locating one will be greatly appreciated.

How much Randy?Got one waiting in the loft.
Hi Rick, back in 1986, I took my damaged cracked dash pad off my car carefully using a sharpened putty knife (windshield removed) Little by little I was able to work it off. I contacted a local upholsterer who I had heard good things about and took the car and the dash pad over to him. He glued it back down to where it came from and filled in the areas and cracks that were damaged. Then he glued a thin layer of foam rubber on top and lastly covered with an almost identical black vinyl. I still have this on my car to this day and looks just as good as the day he put it on. I have never had anyone point out that it’s fractionally bigger and even compliments on it. I hope this helps someone out there.Does anyone have a NEW dash pad left over from a project that that would sell? Our regular suppliers are out of stock and don't expect any soon.

Thanks for the suggestion. Your dash pad project sounds far too ambitious for me.
