I'm looking at dash mats(covers)and from what
I've seen the price and appearance vary greatly.
Would anyone who has one like to share their
ownership experience and maybe offer a review
of the one they have.

I wouldnt have one cause never seen one that was good. Just my opinion but if you use a good protectorant that doesnt glare the vette looks better bare devileek

I'm more concerned about the reflective glare on
the windshield. Maybe I just need to find a
protectant that doesn't leave the dash shiny.
Thanks for the responses.

Been using 303 for awhile and it works great. Snow out here tends to ice up the wiper blades. This stuff keeps it from sticking, on the BMW, not the Vette. If interested here's a link. http://www.303products.com/

I just sent for the free 303 sample kit. If their stuff doesn't make my windshield haze up like the other stuff does, I'll be converted.

This (303 products) do sound like some interesting products. aIf you click on their website and go down on it you will find and address to get some free products. (Costs $7.00 for shipping and handling){You gotta cover costs somehow}. I am giving it a try. smile

Dan, how long does an application last on the blades?

Never heard of this stuff...

Seems like about 3 months before I notice ice starting to cling. I've talked to a couple of people who say it will last 6+ months. Usually apply it around November 1st and it starts to need it again by the end of winter.

I got some of the 303 protectant and it works
very well. Leaves a nice semi-gloss or satin
finish. Also bought a bottle of the 303 fabric
water proofer for the convertible top. Will
put it on after the race and see how it does.
