This will not snap in how I was hoping. We have older dashes and not the same. But I still think I can make this work

Nope, I thought about it and it's not going to be easy or cheap to make it look stock. Maybe buying a piece of alcantara and making a cardboard cut out to get the shape and then gluing it to the dash but I better not F@$% it up. So that's why I'm not doing it. Amy ideas of your own?

I just purchased the same pieces from redline, thanks for sharing. You selected charcoal correct? They only had black, red, and charcoal so I'm assuming the grey is charcoal.

That is correct. I purchased charcoal Alcantara with silver stitch not the faux Alcantara. I also bought the armrests, a pillars, steering wheel and there's is also a piece that goes to the back of the center console where the back seats would be. This piece is not in there website but it's available. I have another thread showing my other pieces. Waiting on the A pollard to arrive and I'm sending my steering wheel to them to do that install. I did all the pieces myself which was pretty easy. I would start on the passenger side first. The install was pretty simple. Just make sure your stitching lines up. Best of luck to you and it's a great upgrade, you'll like it

Ok awesome, I purchased the correct Alcantara. Yeah I noticed how your stitching is very precisely aligned. Thanks for the tips

Is there a particular reason why you choose the e-brake boot and not the handle cover?

Lol, yes there was... I thought it was completely ugly. It was almost falic looking. Unfinished looking that almost resembled foreskin. Lol, you asked
