There's a thread in the For Sale..someone is redoing dashes, and they look pretty good..better than most dash caps IMO. _________________ '82 924 NA Euro (hers)

On my 88 924 I gave my son the plastic type. It looks good although trying to keep it on and straight might be a problem for some.
On the 79 931 I have the carpet type. I did not glue it down but did on the leading edge near the windshield with some tape.
I like the carpet type as there is no glare off it. _________________ "Never let them see you sweat"

|
|
A few weeks ago I purchased a Molded Carpet dash cover. I have seen the plastic dash cover, and they did not fit right. The cheap carpet dash covers did not lay right.
About 45 to 50 dollars. I purchased at Advance Auto.
Take a look

The front is wedge between windshield and dash. It is held in place with velcro. Since it is a molded dash, it is some what firm. It has held very well. _________________ Wisconsin |

It does look nice! Where did you buy it in Rochester? I was in Rochester on Friday. How much did you pay? _________________ Wisconsin |
