does anyone have a pattern for a dash cover? i have some super stretchy vinyl and awesome adhesive. I tried stretching it but i just cant get it pull around the curves of the dash to lay flat and i guess i have to stitch it.

You have got to make a few stitches to get the vinyl to lay flat.
Here is the thread from when I did mine:

My third post has some good pics of the stitching that I needed to do to get it to lay flat. I am tempted to tell you to add an additional stitch on the lower left side of the instrument cluster. That area is the hardest part of the whole thing.

Yeah I ve seen your before do you perhaps have the pattern laying around? or want to do mine ? That corner is the part that is totally screwing me up. Ive can pull and stretch the vinyl around all the corner but that one grrr

I have one of those aftermarket fabric dash covers someplace (the alternative to a plastic dash cap). Not sure if it would help you or not because it just lies on top of the dash, but if you think it would PM and I'll send you a tracing or something....

sorry no pattern, the lady that did the sewing for me didn't make a master pattern. Times are tough right now, I'm sure you could find a local upholstry shop that would do the measuring and sewing for you on the cheap. I think I only paid like $50, but I provided the material.
