I have seen many New Beetle owners purchasing these and thought it was a good idea. Saves the dash from the sun, and looks cute

What do you think?

I was thinking of getting one in burgundy!

personally, i think dash mats are horrible. they're held on with velcro, that when the adhesive back on the velcro fails the mat slides around. then you finally say to hell with this mat, and you take it off, only to find super sticky bits on the dash that are next to impossible to remove

on late 80's early 90's cars, i understood, the plastics were crap and would crack if you look at it funny. but the polymers are so good these days, i say skip it

spend the 20 bucks on some more hello kitty pillows

I considered it myself but decided it was not for me. If you do happen to get one take pics.

Hey Miss Crafty - You could probably make one of your own - with our beloved kitty! But I think it could be cool looking... I think too much cat hair sticks to me and my clothing so eventually all of the critters' fur would end up on the dash mat (it already sticks like crazy to my trunk cover). Definitely take some pictures if you do get it.
This picture made me think of you!

Ashley, I know how you feel...my dash is so shiney and clean that whenever the sun is bright and shines in my car while I am driving, I can not see out of my windshield because it reflects the light right out of my driver's side. I have wanted to get something to cover/make it easier to see but I can't find anything practical. The dash covers are pretty ugly but if its for protective measures then I would probably get one.

I don't know...

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

Lol ... I don't think I'm going to order one. Maybe if I have time one day I'll try to make my own ... we'll see.

I need to get everything else installed on the exterior tomorrow and then start the process of the doors one day.

 

[JohnLocke]

What else you installing on the exterior?

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

I had some HK graphics to install but only put on the HK head part of it. The wording was very hard to align straight as the curve on the doors is not straight. I have two sets of wording left so I may have to cut out each individual letter to install it. Maybe on Monday (since it's another day off = Easter Monday) I'll try it then.

i would understand if you lived in california do to the tempature i would understand but last time i checked dash covers were not cute... i mean my grandma had one of those things.. i really dont get yer obsession with making everything cute.. it must be a chick thing...

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

Lol ... Yep I'm a girl ... I like my car to look cute! And I think the Versa fits the bill

 

[PCversa]

yeah i live in Florida and no way id consider one of these horrendous things.

i still see some old people with em and completely ruins a new car.

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

PCversa: Don't worry I'm not getting one.

 

[Klrversa]

Me neither, but it is still hot/humid here...the lows lately have been 80+ in the spring...Cali weather is not that much worse than Louisiana haha

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

It has been so warm here over the past few days. It's unreal. This is the first Easter that we have ever been able to have an outdoor dinner (BBQ). Yesterday we sat outside for our family Easter dinner. Today it is already 16C ... Beautiful

I just put my shade in my front windshield when she's outside. Right now she's in the garage.

 

[Klrversa]

....that's only 60 degrees farenheit...there is no way I could do that lol...it barely gets below 30 degrees in the winter here!

Glad it's warm to you though, that's great!

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

Lol ... Oh yes this is very warm to us. As long as the temperature does not dip into the freezing mark then we consider it warm.

We deal with a lot of cold temperatures here, so this is a blessing for us

We've been at this current house for over 20 years and like my dad said yesterday, it was the first Easter that we have been able to eat outside and have a bbq.

 

[jlhcrawford]

Ack! global warming! It was gorgeous here today though - 77 degrees today. We relaxed on the balcony, soaked up some sun today and caught up on some naps in the warm weather... so nice!

 

[iluvmyVersa08]

Sounds awesome Jen !!! It's so nice to take a nap out in the sun ...
