Almost forgot, which car is your choice? If you choose the Super Beetle flat windshield, replacing the dash pad won't be a problem. But if you choose the curved windshield Super Beetle, there is a problem. In the USA, there are no replacement parts for the curved windshield Super Beetle dash pad. The one source that I have seen in Germany will only sell the dash as a total restoration package. Dumping allot of money into your dream and finding out, you may be stuck with a crap, cracked dash feels bad.



For me, this is the way to go, a modded curved windshield Super Beetle dash pad, modded for the Porsche 914 gauges; note the padding. CSP sells a fiber glass 911 dash unpadded. Just things you should be aware of, and one more thing; if you see some posts you like, print the page and save them in a folder for future reference.
