V8V dash cover protector to prevent sun damage
Anybody know where I can find one of these? I'd rather drive around with one on it then worry about the leather shrinking, etc. Any ideas?

My 2015 V12S when I got it in October last year had been left outside too much at the dealer and a few leather panels shrunk (was all replaced under warranty). I was amazed that the dealers would not think to protect against the sun as the cars sat outside, and not use protection. I was lucky the car was still under warranty.

I suggest if its in a garage most of its life, then just treat the leather normal and make sure its conditioned. What happens is most people do not condition their leather often enough, and it drys and when the heat hits it, it will shrink a bit. Several threads on here describe owners getting theirs re-stretched and glued. Gauge binnacle is most prevalent for the V8's. On the side right by the windshield. I have seen some at dealers with staples in them to hold it tight.
