Anyone know where I can pick up a MACTHING wood dash kit for only the area above the glove box. I have a WDP w/ Parchment interior and think this addition would look sharp. I do not like the whole kit as I think it is overkill and not to my tastes. Where is the best place to have this work performed; any Southern California suggestions? Thanks!

 

did you check out exoticwooddash.com?

 

You can buy the piece as part of the kit. I don't believe you can order just the one piece. The cost of the kit is less than $200. You can install the piece yourself it is very straight forward and easy to do. I have the whole kit less the speedometer piece. Personal choice, I happen to love my look. I have the Anthracite/Quartz and Nav.
If you need additional input, PM me.

Thanks for all the great information everyone! My only questions left is how secure are the pieces? Is all that you really need to do is peel, stick, heat, and cure (for the glovebox and other pieces) http://www.remotetotes.com ? Is the adhevise pretty strong or can it loose its adhesion in high temperatures (I live in 115+ degrees summers)? Also, if you change your mind, how can you take it off?

 

It took me about 20 mins to apply all the pieces, except speedo. Just lift of the sheet and
stick (no peeling)... some of the pieces are smaller than the surface to be applied, so may need to be centered. Once cured, you may damage the dash rubber surface if try to remove it.

 

Fellow "Duuuuuuuude" from CA. Please post a pic of your wood kit. I have the same car/color combo and nav. I was thinking about doing that, but didn't know how it would look.

 

Sorry, did not mean for that link to show up.


:ghey:

 

Thanks for the great reply everyone, although I am still aprehensive about it coming unglued in the high summer temps (115+ degrees) out here.

 

Everyone, I have had kits like these for over ten years between my last two cars. I live in Southern CA and I can assure you over these years there have been some very hot days. The interiors getting considerably hotter than the air temperture outside too. I have never had a problem with the pieces losing their ability to stay in place nor have they dulled etc. If you want to remove them you can easily with no damage to the dash where they were placed. exoticwooddash.com is very customer friendly. Contact them if you have questions. I had received two different pieces damaged with the original kit, made contact with them and they shipped new ones out without a question. I for one am happy with my result.

 

Any concern with airbog deployment and the dash trim located above the glove box?
