So how did this work out for you?
Worked out good. Didn't get it in time for the Bandimere show cause the shipping would have been too much.
But I did receive it a few days later. Nice looking dashpad. I was thinking this was a "new" pad, like a reproduction, but I think its actually a refurbished original. Don't know this for sure but that's how it looks to me.
One thing weird what the studs coming out of the back side were a little short. Much shorter than the studs on my original. And the threads were a little buggered up on a couple of them. On a couple of them, I could not use the original type nut which I think you would call them speed nuts because the studs were so short. I had to use a standard type nut.
Also the dashpad seems to have a slight twist in it. Its like the top of the dashpad is level (front to back) on the passenger side, but as it gets to the drivers side it's sloping towards me a little. It's very slight, and I doubt that anyone would ever notice it besides me. It bothers me a little, but not enough to make me want to send it back.
Over all it looks good, 100% better than my old cracked and broken original, but was a little disappointed in the overall quality.
As far as service, Mike was really east to deal with, and the pad was shipping quickly.
