Would like a few close ups of this part - Dash pad
« on: August 19, 2015 - 03:15:08 PM »
Ok, folks, there is enough debate as to which vendor does the best job on restoring dash pads, from this forum, there seems to be 3 main players, JustDashes, InstrumentSpecialties and DashPros. I would REALLY like to see some high-def pics of you out there that have had your dashes restored by any of those 3 vendors, not with caps, but the whole pad, prefer 1970 because that is what I have, want to see stitching, fitment, etc. If you have a burnt orange dash pad restoration you get a bonus THANK YOU!!

Thanks

Well, I really don't think two of those listed companies restore dash pads, they most likely supply pads restored by either JUST DASHES or ULTIMATE RIDES.

My opinion, ULTIMATE RIDES supplies the best reproduction dash pad on the market.  :2cents: Again, my opinion.

You will find lots of people that swear by JUST DASHES, but I find they look too puffy and lack detail.

HOWEVER: With that being said, if you're looking for a pad that is exactly like your original, forget it, nothing even comes close, especially for 1970 pads. 71+ pads are a closer match, but still not perfect.

I agree with above, I went through 4 pads from UR and finally just settled with the 5th.
I would never buy from them unless you can do it in person, completely random quality control.
