Dashboard trimming
Anybody knows where or if it´s possible to get a vinyl/laminate like the black dashboards. I would like to change mine to black but I don´t like the wood grain effect...

Re: Dashboard trimming
maybe you need something like this. I think it is not exactly the same. like your sample in the picture, but it comes very close:
and in this thread below there is a template/stencil to download, I dont know if it exactly fits..:

Re: Dashboard trimming
Not on a dashboard. But I play Marshall amps and that could come pretty close to the dashboards. I'll compare it this evening and give you a feedback. But the stuff shown in the link isn't original Marshall and I don't know how that differs from the original. Looks the same though. I remember being able to order it it from Marshall directly but I couldn't find it in their website yesterday.xpbernardo hat geschrieben: ↑20.02.2023, 10:49this one looks pretty close.

Re: Dashboard trimming
I saw on the site the Tolex Levant. Looks exactly the same. With good adhesive should be perfectNash Taran hat geschrieben: ↑20.02.2023, 12:05Not on a dashboard.

Re: Dashboard trimming
I took a picture of my amp at home and my dashboard for comparison:
The lining on the amp has a rougher structure.

Re: Dashboard trimming
Based on my experience I would suggest to look after a good Rekord C dashbord and sale the Commodore dashboard!
All other solution will be a compromise and you will see this every time sitting in the car.

Re: Dashboard trimming
I think your amp is the tolex "elephant" the other one looks much closer to the one in the dashboardNash Taran hat geschrieben: ↑21.02.2023, 07:48 I took a picture of my amp at home and my dashboard for comparison:

Re: Dashboard trimming
Marshall amps have very thick Tolex, as a musician myself i would consider fender Tolex. It has less texture.
