The OE MATCH Complete Dashboard with Front Air Vent Hole is a replacement dashboard designed for compatible left-hand-drive (LHD) Porsche applications. Finished in black, it provides a solution for restoring an interior where the original dashboard has become cracked, warped, faded or otherwise damaged through age and exposure.
Fits:
- Porsche 911 1986 3.2L
- Porsche 911 1987-1989 3.2L G50
- Porsche 911 1978-1989 3.3L Turbo (930)
The dashboard is one of the most visually prominent parts of a classic Porsche interior. Years of sunlight, heat and temperature changes can cause the original material to deteriorate, particularly around the windscreen, instrument area and ventilation openings.
This replacement dashboard is supplied with the front air vent hole configuration and is intended for LHD vehicles where this dashboard specification is required.
What This Product Does:
The dashboard forms the main upper structure and finished surface of the vehicle's front cabin.
As well as defining the appearance of the interior, it provides the surrounding structure and mounting environment for various dashboard components and controls.
Depending on the vehicle specification, these can include:
- Instrument cluster and gauges
- Air ventsSwitchgear
- Heating and ventilation controls
- Trim components
- Associated dashboard fittings
The dashboard also creates the finished transition between the cabin, windscreen area and vehicle controls.
A dashboard in good condition therefore contributes to both interior functionality and the overall appearance of the vehicle.
Symptoms Of Wear Or Failure:
Dashboard deterioration is usually visually obvious.
Common signs include:
- Cracks across the dashboard surface
- Splitting around air vents
- Cracks around the instrument area
- Damage near the windscreen edge
- Warped or distorted dashboard sections
- Shrinkage of the covering material
- Raised or uneven surfaces
- Faded or discoloured finish
- Loose or separating trim
- Damaged mounting areas
- Previous repairs becoming visible
- Poorly fitting dashboard components
- Cuts, holes or other physical damage
Small cracks can gradually spread as the dashboard continues to experience temperature changes.
Why Replacement Matters:
A deteriorated dashboard does not normally affect the basic mechanical operation of the vehicle, but it can have a major impact on the quality and appearance of the interior.
Replacing a badly cracked or damaged dashboard helps:
- Restore the appearance of the cabin
- Eliminate prominent cracks and splits
- Improve the fit of dashboard trim and components
- Restore a clean surface around instruments and vents
- Improve the quality of an interior restoration
- Replace previous poor-quality dashboard repairs
- Maintain the presentation of a classic Porsche
- Provide a fresh foundation for surrounding interior components
For restoration projects, the dashboard is particularly important because it occupies such a large and highly visible area of the cabin.
