Dash Pad Covers

Does anyone have a picture of a dash pad cover in their third gen... they are much cheaper than replacing the dash pad, but I'm not quite sure what they would look like once installed... thanks in advance.

Yes, I have been to birdsandbowties and have seen their dash covers, but I want to see one installed into a third gen so I can see what they look like after it's been put in.

Re: Dash Pad Covers

Hi, sorry, but I don't have a picture of one on the dash, but really, it's basically pretty visual as it only covers the top section of your dash pad. The vent holes are cut out as well as the side vent holes and if you wanted the speaker holes cut out, I can do that also and sew the binding around them so it looks real nice. I personally don't think they look tacky because it beats having to pay the price for a brand new dash pad after all. They lay flat on your dash pad. On all the third and fourth gen cars I have ever owned whether the dash was cracked or not, I always had one on my dash. Just thought I would put my 2 cents in.:>)
