[DML] Re: dash covers ?

["Doc" <doctor280@xxxx>]

To the list,

It was not me that wrote this.(see below)

In my post I mentioned, that basically a dash cover of any type or style
will damage your dash over time. I will say that the dash cover that I was
using was light gray in color not black....so this fact shoots the theory
down, that a black dash cover will damage the dash and a light in color one
will not. I will state again that the vinyl that was used for the Delorean
dash has to breath to retain it's color. If your dash is already damaged, be
it cracks or by sun damage, then yes the dash cover is a great way to cover
these problems. But if you have a good dash, don't use a dash cover, because
you will not have a good dash for long.

<< was wondering if anyone has or uses a dash cover, (I don't know the
exact term for them). It's those cloth covers that cover the dash. I
was just wondering if anyone knew of any place or company that made one
that custom fix the Delorean dash? If so, where could I get one at and
how about how much are them? A little preventative medicine can't hurt,
my dash is 'perfect' and I just don't want any cracks or anything to
happen to it.
thanks in advance !! >>
If you intent to use a "Carpet style" dash mat,for Dash protection if it
comes Black Tint it WHITE,the last thing you want is a black carpet sitting
on your dash sucking up the UV rays and heat,the white will reflect the uv
rays,those guys that supply fuel for our Deloreans don't wear white towels
on
their heads(ie dash mats for your heads) learned a long time ago not to put
Black towels on their heads for sun protection.
