Soft Touch Dash
Does anyone still sell a "soft touch" dash for the spider? I saw these a few years ago. They weren't OEM, but more like the current hard plastic ones with a soft outer surface.

It is pricey, but they can recover your dash to look like the original and be nice and soft!

Teak's pretty stable. That's why they use it in boats and picnic tables.So Cal Mark wrote:what's gonna keep that big slab of wood from warping?

Re: Soft Touch Dash
I kind of like the long dash look, very classic but I don't know if I would like to give up the glove box?
Re: Soft Touch Dash
it's such a long expanse of wood, there needs to be something to break it up

Re: Soft Touch Dash
Hmmm, so Mark likes my wood? Actually that big expanse of wood will be broken up a little. I have some ideas, but nothing concrete yet. Thanx for the positive response.
