Question

I came across a few threads just no pictures

http://6litereaterdesigns.com/store/...roducts_id=248

wanting to know how this would look installed and how well the dash stayed in place for temps above 95 in sun for a few hours

Mine was fine when I took it out set it on the garage floor and heat cracked it in a few days and now its in about 20 pieces can it be used still?

no one?

guess not?

IDK about it or not. I haven't heard anyone say anything about that piece. I would get it and try it out.

As noted in some of the other threads, that is a cover that fits over the existing dash pad.
Not actually made by 6LE, but simply marketed thru them.

Search Ebay or the salvage yars & buy a new or used dash pad.

I bought a carpet off Ebay for my dash for $25, had it a year now and i love it. Eliminates almost all of that Nasty reflective Glare that we get. Don'y know anything about this piece your asking about.

Don't know anything about it, but it has to be better than having carpet on your dash. If glare is a problem, use a matte cleaner instead of glossy.

I was thinking of the ones that hang over the whole dash If you are talking about one of these, then I guess it looks pretty ok!

Yes that's it but i got it a lot cheaper and the crapet is UV protected so it won't fade. Didn't mean to be rude.
