Default WTB Red Mid-year Dash Pad Skins

Before I pull the trigger on a new set of dash pad skins does anyone have any red for sale they decided not to install. Need for my '65. These are uber pricey and if anyone have any just laying there.............they want to get rid of.

Do you want the dash pads or just the skins? I think the skins are pretty reasonable. Full dash pads on the other hand....wow!

Looking for skins, just a long shot. Thanks for the link. Will eventually bite the bullet.

Installing dash pad skins can be tricky. If you never done this before, better have it done by a vendor like Corvette America who sells the skins.

Thanks for your input, Wonderful.
Changed out interiors about 12 years ago on an old coupe before I sold it. Pads turned out very adequate and cost effective compared to new pads.
You're right, tricky. As soon as the spray adhesive hits the vinyl, they turn into limp, almost melted, plastic.

I messed up 3 sets before getting the 4th set to look presentable. Not very cost effective to say the least.
