Dash cover, pic request
Hi all,
I was cruising down a dirt road today, hit a wash out, and my dash litterally fell apart. It was cracked to begin with, but now there is a huge chunk missing and the pieces that are still there rattle like crazy.
Anyway, the dealer wanted $520 for the dash itself, and much more for the install. **** that. So now I'm looking for a dash cover I guess. A lot of people I talked to recommended Geno's Garage. I'm kind of on the fence with the whole dash cover thingy. I don't want it to look like crap. Does anyone have one of these dash covers installed? How do you like it? If you could post a few pics of it I'd appreciate it! Thanks.

The replacement dash was something like 250 about 4 years ago when I first looked into it, then the next year it was 375, I wonder how high they will go with the price since they know they can make a killing on all the mechanically declined suckers out there.
My cover was something like 130 on ebay. I never did stick it down, it's just sitting there and it lifts up above the fuse panel a little bit and on the right side of the airbag but it wouldn't if I were to glue it down. I like the easy dash access that comes from it just sitting there so it doesn't bother me.

Thanks guys. Yeah I saw Miami Sons thread, that's not what I'm looking for though. He got some kind of roll up cover thing.
I guess I'll be buying a whole new dash. Theres a few things I don't like about the dash covers and I know I'll kick myself if I don't do it right the first time.
