Help me for new Dashboard Please.

I have 1999 C2, and I bought leather dashboard from 2003. The grove box didn't fit..... Because of the plastic piece for Air vent. The center air vent didn't fit ether.... Do you guys know how to make it work? If I just buy those plastic piece, would it fit?

Only one hour?? What were the steps involved? And if you don't mind me asking, can you share how much the new dash cost you?

Pearl, would you be interested in selling the original airbag cover from the passenger side of your 99 plastic dash? I'm rebuilding a 99 996 that had a dashboard fire. Thanks, Mark.

I'm selling whole dash set on ebay now, after the ebay ends, I'll think about. Is that OK?

Pearl, I am the person that inquired about this on ebay last night. I don't mind bidding on the entire dash....the carbon trim looks nice. Thanks, Mark.

Thanks Mother, I hope your project is going well. I always enjoy reading your posts. I envy your ambition to do a S/C on your own. Be glad you are not in CA and have to worry about the Smog regulations. It sure would be nice if there was a system that was CA smog legal.

Pearl, I saw the dash didn't sell on ebay. Can I talk you into selling me just the airbag cover? I would have gladly bought your dash, but I already bought one as part of a package deal from my local salvage yard. Thanks, Mark mtfletcher@sbcglobal.net
