Those are sweet!

Where did you buy them, or did you have your stockers reupholstered?

I just read all 17 pages of this. I want to do this so bad, but I've always been bad at things involving glue. I'd love doors like Viking with white piping instead of red, and cover everything in black. I just really have no idea how to work with vinyl.

When you apply the 3m blue glue to the dash and vinyl you let them set for some time. Is this before you apply the vinyl to dash? Was that the only glue you used for the dash? I seen the 77 but with everyone posting different parts I can't tell what exactly you did
