Well i want to get my dash fixed, Droped by nissan the other day and they said they cant get one(lame excuse u usally get when u mention datsun, im sure they could get it if they put i little bit of effort in ) Anyway i would like to know wat you peoples have done and wat u would suggest, photos and price would be great if posible. my concerns on getting it re-upholsted would be if it still fits nice with the extra layer?? also does the dash need to be crack free to be eligible?? I guess i should be first asking if anyones got a 120y dash pad in immaculate condtion they want to sell me??

Nissan can get them but they are grey as they have in ZA. (sorry just realised yours is a 120y, more reason for them to have a spare)

If you get it repaired make sure you use someone who remoulds not recovers, in south aus we have dash original who do this, looks mint when finished, heres mine;

there are people that restore dash pads to original so they dont have that extra layer your worried about i think ive seen ads in just cars mags or keep asking apolsterers if they can restore it or know anyone that does ur sure to find someone.

I can get brown or black brand new ones from nissan i just ordered one and it will take two weeks to get to canberra

OOPs i can get 1200 and ask about 120y

Heres a link to the Dash doctor. My mates have been to them and been really happy. Dash Doctor

my brother inlaw is a motor trimmer any damaged dashpads he repares he fills the damage parts will bog then sands them off then re upholster them Ive seen some pretty bad ones come up great.you get any colour you want then

hmmm all very intresting thanks for the feed back everyone, gee some of those dashs look smich as. that remolding sounds like the go i wonder weather thats the same as the vacumed applied vinyl??? Whiteute could u ask next time u head in if u can a get a black 120y dash also how much,there will be a spotters tip in it for u if u can get one, in the meantime i think i will have to do a ring around and see wat ACT has to offer(if its like everything else then nothin ) cheers Tom

Im in ACT as well, call laurie at lennock motors phillip he can source one also includes new glovebox lid.
Cheers
