Got a reply back already.  Premier is leaving it open at this time in an effort to have a larger run.
My thought is, members wanting to get a pad redone, should be in by the end of the year. That way it shouldn't hold things up.

I'm in for one in black. Let me know how to proceed! Thanks for the leg work on this!!

Hi Keith,

  You will need a good core to start with. 
The core is stripped to the metal base, new foam is applied and then covered with new correct grain vinyl.  Your core needs to have all the clips, both threaded studs and no bad rust. Surface rust is ok, that is cleaned off.

I am handling the money end. You can pay either a personal check or Paypal. If you use PP, add 3% for their fee.
I will PM you my address, the form to go with your core and the shipping information  if you want to go forward.

Black dash pad   $464.00
Return shipping  $  35.00
                           _______
Total                    $499.00

If you don't have a good core, there is an additional charge of $165.00

What's the turnaround time on this?

[Loren At 65GS]

They are working on the mold now.
Estimated turn around at this time is early February.

Thanks for your interest,
 Loren

Ok. Great. Car goes in to the exhaust shop next Tuesday, so I wouldn't be able to pull the dash pad until after thanksgiving I'm guessing....that's not a problem is it?

[Loren At 65GS]

Bud,

  No problem !

 Loren

[Turbonut85]

Got the dash out and boxed up.....next steps??

[Loren At 65GS]

Hi Keith,

  Include the form from post #95, dashpad.pdf,  with your dash pad.  Shipping address is on the form.

 PM sent with payment information.

 Thank you ,

One of my threaded studs is loose....still there, just loose. Do I need to have it welded in before I send it out? Also, do they do the armrest pads too? I need those done....

[Loren At 65GS]

It would be best to secure the stud.

I have been in communication with them about redoing the arm rest pads.  They are very interested in doing the arm rest pads.

I will be pursuing this in the near future. I plan to do it like the dash pad project. 

I will post some more on the arm rests as it progresses.

I'll get the stud secured tomorrow, and get the dash shipped out Monday. Thanks for setting all of this up Loren. I/we appreciate how much work something like this can be.
