does anyone have a dash cover?

Louie cat · 04-02-2016, 12:21 AM

I want to get a decent dash cover, carpeted or suede. Any recomendations? Thanks

My recommendation: Don't.

A 370Z is not a 1970's conversion van...

I have a carpeted one, it is pretty good. I have to have a sun protector and dashboard cover because I live in one of the hotest states in the US, Florida.
Here is mine, but I haven't fix it to the dash.

I bought it from ebay.
If you want a more recent picture, I could always upload another one.

No, it covers everything except the light sensor. To be honest, I was not aware that those things in the front of the dashboard were speakers. I haven't upgraded my sound system yet, I have the base model.
Overall. I am quite happy

What about your passenger side airbag? Covering it up like that is not a good idea. Best case it slows down the air bag and it is not as affective. Worst case the air bag turns the dash cover into a projectile.

verses paying 1k on a new dash and $500. for labor ,I will

Mine has some damage.

I just ordered a "coverking" brand from "auto accessories garage" It gave me the option to have the cutouts for the top speakers and both sensors. Of course I took the speaker cutouts option.
It should look decent enough to cover the imperfections. I also got an estimate on the labor cost of replacing the dash top, omg it is pricey,the labor alone is $1107. @ 8hrs. Thier cost for the part well exceeds the labor at $1600.! Over $2700. total!! F that.
I can get the oem part for $960. if I really want to get it done. I will see if I am happy with the $41. cover first!
