  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    I'm having conversations with the owner of Just Dashes about a group purchase. Part of the conversation was the the padding being a little thick. Anyway the current price is $1200.00 and looking into a reduction on that with a group purchase. The pricing would be a good straight core with no broken mounting stud issues. Let me know of how much interest you all have out there, please no tire kickers LOL!

    I'm in the process of lining up a half a dozen to send out for restoration. Looking for good straight cores.

    Well it looks like there is no interest on ether end. Just Dashes wouldn't offer a discount for a multiple order and got no post follow on this forum.

    Very interested, would you need my core for 1200 or would this be a purchased unit ready to R&R? Do you need a deposit or a core shipped to just dashes? Just saw your posting.

    Just Dashes restores the one you send them. Trying to find a good original is impossible! I've bought two and neither I'm I 100% satisfied with. I will be looking into Just Dashes because have no luck in locating a mint condition original.

    Al, There is a group in my area name Dr. Vinyl. I was able to get one of them to fix a cigarette burn hole in my otherwise perfect dashpad.
    After fixing the burn the entire dash was dyed.

    These guys in my area work with most of the local used car sale lots. They repair worn seats/interiors for them. I don't know your area but seems there may not be Dr. Vinyl near you? Maybe ask your used car lots who repairs their seats?
