RE: Would you like a BRAND NEW DASH FOR YOUR Mk2????????????

From what I recall in their website, one should make sure that there are no protrusions due to the cracks, so you should be alright --of course, I am assuming your cracks are nothing obscene like an inch wide. I am curious myself to find out what that material looks like --but, hey, it is guaranteed for life. I will gladly pay $100 to try it out. Not to mention that we won't have to mess with taking the dash off the car (a fun job the first time I tried it, but a bit of a drag for all the subsequent times).

SEND DASH-CAPS AN EMAIL AND LET THEM KNOW YOU WANT THE MkII DASH CAP!!!!!!  THREATEN THEM!!!!!!   (Hurry up, I can't stand the site of my cracks anymore).
