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...

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..:

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.

I saw on the site the Tolex Levant. Looks exactly the same. With good adhesive should be perfect

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

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.

I get what you´re saying but I didn´t find any with the configuration I need: That gap with for the radio, symbols above the buttonts and small hazzard light socket

I think your amp is the tolex "elephant" the other one looks much closer to the one in the dashboard

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