I have the dash out of the car and bare of everything that goes in it. I have taken the old covering off and now am ready to recover the dash. Please let me know the little things I will need to know to recover it. Do I spray the adhesive and pull the covering from top to bottom? Do I need to clip one part and work my way across the dash, or is it all done at once? The idea seems simple, but I am sure there are little tips that will make it go much smoother.
Thanks,
Charlie
 
Check with your covering supplier. Most materials are more "stretchy" in one direction than the other. When going around curves this could be critical. With a BE this may not be a serious concern but you would want the most flexibility top to bottom rather than side to side. Bob
