Hi all,
I had a look in the how to section but haven't seen any tips and how to's on covering dash with black vinyl as per cooper s. Mine needs repainting after some over spray got on it, I figure I might just cover it as I think the interior looks nicely finished off with the dash rails covered but wondering if I should be avoiding it?

Anyone got any thoughts, advice or suggestions?

It's not hard. To do just glue it on and take your time and it will look great

I think the vinyl is glued around the inside lip of the windscreen - but if you don't want to take the windscreen out and your windscreen seal is still supple, you can lift the edge of the seal and tuck the edge of the vinyl in under it.

I did it to my van years ago. Just used black vinyl off the roll from Spotlight. Looked pretty good!
