    did you get the dash pad?
    if not yet you will also need the funky little bolts that mount it.

    Thank you so much for helping source the dash pad. I just got it in the car!! I had went to the upholstery store and picked out some nice fabric to wrap it. Also put a 1/4” foam pad under and came out fabulous!!

    looks great. You were able to put it on with the windshield in? I hear that is quite the feat.
