Default Dash Cap comments please

I'm considering ordering a dash cap for my vert. Before I do, I was wondering if any of you have installed one of these can give me some comments on your installation experience, the finished quality of the install, (particularly around the edges), and your general satisfaction with this type of product.

Thanks,
YV

Hi
I did mine about a year ago. I had the dash out and if fit like a glove(perfect). The edges are good. The only place I had a problem is the defroster. The insert wouldn't stay in so I glued it in and it worked. I then sprayed it black and installed it in. I don't know how good of a job it will be with the dash in?

Thanks Chuck. Good to hear. I suspect that most of the products from different suppliers will be the same. Who did you buy yours from?
