Dash Off... 120-130 1967

I have used one on a 122 wagon and also on a 145 wagon. I got them on Ebay,
not from IPD, but I suspect they are the same item.
2 points to look out for:
a. Be sure the tube of adhesive is not overaged. If in doubt, buy a new one.
b. The cover needs to be backed up closely by the existing dash but must REST
in its proper location. That is, do NOT remove the old dash pad completely
because under heat, the new COVER will sag. It needs support. But it needs to
fit in place easily, so the adhesive does not have to resist pressure from the
underlying substrate. That will mean some, maybe a lot, of carving. When
properly and snugly installed, it looks great. If unsupported it will become
wavy.
