    Roland, are you chasing the one-piece version - sans ashtray?

        Damn, I just bought one from the States

        Alex, can you tell me about the "wing" differences?

        Roland depending on what you find, I'll be recovering the one for my car; if it happens to be really nice I'm happy to swap for a crappier one.

          Why you should have 3 piece for your 69???

            Like all reformed smokers, I'm a militant ashtray hater. And I really like the clean lines of the one-piece dash

              Big wings

              Thanks Alex. That's the one. Mine has gone missing. Quanta costa?

              I'll recover to match the rest of my interior. John - thanks for the offer.

                  Sorry Roland, did not see your last post.

                  Don't know how much they are worth. I think I paid about $200 for mine. It is in really nice condition. Let me know and I will box it up and send it up you.

                    FWIW, I just got my very nice one delivered from the States and also paid $200...

                        Vinyl

                        Had the knee guard recovered for fifty bucks - what a deal.

                        For those that care to do this themselves the trimmer was saying that vinyl is directional ie. it stretches better in one direction than the other.... Now I find out!

                          Good to know, I'm still yet to cover mine.

                          Did the sway arrive today?

                              I'm sure it'll get there today...

                              Don't forget that a front sway induces "push" or understeer through corners... If the front of your car is still wandering, the bar probably won't resolve it.

                              Getting ride-height, corner balance and suspension set up is still one of the things this DIY guy gets a pro to do! Worth every cent.
