  1. I copied the video to youtube (never posted on there before). Thank you for the quick response and suggestions.
  2. I'm working on a '74 Datsun 260z and I decided to install some leather over the winter while the car was in hibernation. I purchased the leather pre-cut and sewn for my car from a company in the UK (I'm in Ohio). I was able to get the door cards, center counsel and arm rest completed without too much trouble. The dashboard was a disaster. First I discovered they sent the dash for the wrong year car and some of the dashboard details were wrong (holes in the wrong place). I shipped the leather back to the UK and they sent me another one. This one is close but the vent holes were cut 1 1/2 inches too high and the recess cone for the vents were not cut correctly. I pealed the leather back off and I'm trying to trace the shape of two dashboard panels to recut them and sew them on in place of what they sent. Where can I post my progress and get suggestions on what to do? Jeff Link to video of my dilemma: https://streamable.com/ts3evp
