Anyone have experience with the dashboard covers I see for sale on various websites ?
How's the fit and appearance ?
Do they interfere with the ventilation system or other operational aspects of the car ?
Are there quality differences in the materials of the various ones available ?
And also, do they really protect/prolong the life of the dashboard area ?
Or have advances in technology minimized the dash cracking problems of yesteryear ?

I purchased mine from TVA 714-792-3975 and got the expensive one, if you buy one ask them to send more of the little Velcro dots to hold it in place. Ron
