small bottom dash radius
Morning all
I'm still struggling trying to find a suitable trim to allow me to have the smaller 5mm padded radius on the bottom of my dash.
I've tried a couple of trim types now including the neoprene D section and both have felt either too soft and I can feel the dash when pressing
on it or it feels far too hard and doesn't seem to have any give.
I need the solution to attach to the bottom edge only really as if it goes around the rear of the dash for instance I've tried split rubber
hose then it fouls up being able to attach it to the scuttle at the bottom outside edges (if that makes sense)
The dash is made from 8mm MDF and I intend to cover it with vinyl.
So if anyone who has successfully used the small padded 5mm solution care to pass on what trim or solution they used that didn't involve rubber
hose I'd be really grateful.
Thanks all
Nigel

you know that foam pipe lagging, the gray expanded stuff with the split down the middle? it's carves very well with course sand paper and is
lovely and spongy, easily to glue also.
