Dash Pad Recovering?

[cghstrojan08]

Has anyone ever just bought some new vinyl and put it on there old dash pad? I mean like take it off and cover it? If so, got any pics?

someone has done this. they posted some pics last year or so. there have also been two trucks on ebay that has a new recovered dash on them. they are still listed in the trucks for sale someplace. one was in california and the other was in utah

Aside from recovering are there any chemicals that can restore the vinyl from a faded condition?

i might start with soap and water . i read on here that amour all will help promote the deteriation of the pad.

I like Meguiars stuff the best. The have a vinyl and rubber protectant that I use for the dash:

My dash was rather dry and soaked it in. I don't know if this is the right product for the job, but it's served me well so far...
