Default Dash Kit ??

Anybody try those DIY Dash Kits that you glue on? My shifter plate needs replaced and you can't hardly find them without paying big bucks.

Thanks

Mine is a 91. The vinyl kit works good. This is not coming off, make sure it fits right before applying, once it sticks it it's on. Make sure surfaces are CLEAN. Use denatured alchohol, not the drinkable stuff to clean surface.

Dash kit looks good! How about some details? Where did you get it? Is that Rosewood or something else? Does it come with the pieces that go around the a/c vents? I've thought about buying one for my 94! Thanks!

Dan,

I've had my stick-on kit from Mid America for over 10 years. No problem.

Here is a partial pic from my ongoing stereo project. My car came with a wood kit. It wasn't my style and underneath was worse so i got a carbon fibre one.

Man - I like that a lot! My '88 has a rather cheap looking "plasti-wood" set that I've been thinking about replacing. Where did the Carbon Fiber set come from?
