New Soft Dashboard

Post by ck01 »

Mr. Fiat has a new soft dashboard for the 124/2000

Has anyone used one of these? Is it worth the price?

If I had the cash, I would probably do it. Seems that busted dash vinyl is common and to find a good replacement, especially on the older models is getting harder. We capped our dash and it is not what I would call the best option, but it was within our means. And that still didn't fix the other sections that had gone to pot such as the small tabs for the dash that were busted up.

There is another dash available on the Mr. Fiat site and it is "only" $359. I bought one of those and it is very nice. The upper part has a little "give" to it, but the front is hard, but then that's were the instruments go, so it's not really an issue.
