I feel like this is how’s it’s meant to be done, but none of the companies have bothered to tell us. And this guy was the first to realize it! Thanks for the video, I knew there had to be a better way to get this thing to fit better👍👍
Awesome! Thanks for making this look less intimidating! I always thought the coverlay was crap because it didn't fit! Now I know, its just because it wasn't installed right. Great work!
Finally, the first person to actually do the right thing! I wish I give you more than one star!Filling a dash with Bondo is not a repair! This is the correct way to do the job!
I did the same to mine. You can even modify the cap, trim holes for other things if you like. But there's really no need to re-do the old dashboard. Unless you want something nice and fancy. The coverlay works perfect. I even painted mine.
Great video! I do wish however that you would have shown the finished product as well as it being installed in the truck. I watched other videos with the coverlay prduct where the coverlay was installed off the truck and it wouldn't fit. Perhaps your method would have prevented that but it would have been nice to see. Thanks again ffor a great video.
Depending how bad it is you can another part of a old dash and graft it in or go to Home Depot if you got one close by you , get the spray foam and cut it down . Hope this helps .
Thanks man, I did not want pay $500 bucks for a reproduction dash which I know probably wouldn't have fit right like everything I ever ordered for my old silverado

Sent here by a post on Squarebody Nation. Subbed
Would love the link to the dash cover and to see the finished product. Either way, I'm doing this to my dash soon!! Thanks for showing us how.
Excellent video! Thanks so much!
I used a Coverlay and was not really happy...now, Im gonna do it over, plus my duallys, too
Great video.. thanks for the tips on how to do the dash cap.

How'd the painting go ? .. what did you use please
So no follow up video to show it’s held up and everything ?
Do you have a video showing what it looked like installed?
Very good demonstration, the only way to put the cap on.
Nice I admire you're patience I would be really tempted to use a wire wheel on a grinder to take the old stuff off
Well done
Thank you , lol it really takes time they it right ..
Great video! I do wish however that you would have shown the finished product as well as it being installed in the truck.

Ok I will do a video with it on one of my trucks stay tuned .
Any luck getting this video with the dash installed?
@@anthnmnt I will get it done for you very soon
Very nice,looks way better than just throwing it on!
Thanks appreciate that this the only way to do it right.
Where did you get the replacement dash pad??
Great Vid, thanks. My Dash is pretty bad. I'm going to attempt removing the cracked vinyl the way you suggest.
Did it work?
What is the best way to replace the foam that is destroyed that goes under it?
Depending how bad it is you can another part of a old dash and graft it in or go to Home Depot if you got one close by you , get the spray foam and cut it down . Hope this helps .
@@dirtykustomz I was.hoping the spray foam would work, thanks, I'll give that a try
Do you put something on top of the foam to help it to stick to the coverlay?
@@jessicascott137 I believe the kit comes with glue, I haven't ordered mine yet.
@@jessicascott137 you can use clear silicone or spay on glue in the can ,
If you have that all stripped down can't you just paint it why add the coverlay cover?
@@dannyloftis3949 well you can do whatever you like on your build ,
Thank you for inpowering me to have a go❤
You can do it just take your time.
Glad you made this video , i definitely will try it !
I going to make a new one soon start to complete just waiting on the cap . Thanks for watching.

If you go as far as to take off the dash. Spend the money and get the reproduction dash. Just makes more sense
