Just a thought. If you haven't already signed up with Just Dashes to recover your dash pad I would strongly recommend you go with a replacement dash pad from RD Autoline out of Sweden.

They make those dash pads using new molds and they are perfect replacements for your G (or H). The ones you would get if you go through Just Dashes would look "puffy" and clearly look like what they are - an attempt to make yours look better with another cover on top of your original that is a reasonable try, but no cigar from what I have seen.

There are some photos of your dashpad in this RD Autoline link: http://autoline.se/?lang=en_us

The wait time to receive yours from RD Autoline and also the cost would likely end up being less expensive and less of a wait compared to Just Dashes.

I am replacing the dash pad on my 300G. I read through the blog from Just Dashes to give me a leg up on this project. I got to the rear view mirror removal, working through the speaker hole, even the radio is out. I tried to get a 1 3/8 socket on the mirror nut. Just dashes indicated that the nut was 1 3/8. I just couldn’t get a socket on it, so I cut a perfectly fine 1 3/8 combination wrench in half, it was too long to fit inside the dash. So after wasting a lot of time and effort, I finally realized the nut is 1 7/16. Just in case any of you have to remove the rear view mirror.

Regards
bill
