Dash radio buttons trim cover installed

You’re justifying a $30 piece of plastic for all the time in “engineering, fabrication, etc.”. Once that piece is ‘engineered’, it’s just a matter of repeating the ‘fabrication’ with minimal costs and labor. So yeah, it’s overpriced. There’s no need for insults.
Stop posting. Move on.

Run a business and learn something.

Or guess what? Don't buy it!!!!!!!! Wow! Capitalism!!

Take your own advice please.

Wait, I am a bonehead. I see that the matte black is the after. I am still not sure if I like it any better LOL

The lighter color is somewhat reminiscent of an old Ford truck which is cool to me (like my Grandpa's old truck). The darker color looks nice too but I'll just keep mine stock.

Agree, that is a much more finished look. I'm guessing double-sided 3M type tape for an install. Kind of expensive ($30) for a piece of plastic, but it does look better.

Yep, comes with 3M tape already in place on the back. Just peel off the backing, put in place, and press to install.

A real quality piece, and really an improved look.

Looks much better with that trim cover...

Now that looks good! I'm going to add this little accessory to my list of items to buy. I'm just waiting for my little guy to arrive. Great before and after photos.

I did the same. Gives the interior a much better finished look.

Sorry for the long delay in replying to your post. I did mine and gives the interior an inexpensive but much needed upgrade. Not sure if it was you, but someone here also suggested outlining the dial controls in black marker to cover up any blue dash that might squeak through any tiny gaps.

Wasn’t me … I find that the trim piece fits really well.

But if the. gaps were really obvious, or it really bothered me, I’d use black tape before using a permanent black marker on the dash. Or even better, some black rubber grommets or washers, if I could find them the right size.

getting rid of the orange tray and adding that radio insert to cut down on the Coleman Cooler plastic definitely makes the interior a little nicer!

I do like the tape alternative! Much less permanent.

Makes it look finished. Nice.

Now if they make it carbon fiber to match my steering wheel cover and headlight button surround, then I might buy it. Thanks for posting.

I was looking at our installation of this yesterday, and really — it fits so well there are no gaps where you’d feel it necessary to cover up the original dash material behind it. There’s none of that showing through.

They do make it in carbon fiber. Both “carbon fiber” and “carbon fiber pattern,” whatever the difference is. (Also orange and … red.)
