Need Pics of an Original Leather Dash

Post by Philo »

I'm attempting a leather dash recover and looking for some pics of a factory original.  I scoured the internet and found some good shots but I can't find pics of the forward portion near the windshield.  From a few pics I found online it looks like a seam was sewn at the horizontal vent line.  Can someone take some pics of their OE dash and email them to me please.  I need shot of the windshield vent area, the glovebox pocket and ends next to the doors.  I have a pretty good idea of how the German ladies tackled the dash but just need some visual confirmation.

Thx !!  Email - philo88m5@gmail.com

There are some decent shots of an OE leather dash on the ex-king of Sweden M5 on bringatrailer.com.  Might have what you need?

The King Of Sweden listing on BAT had some great shots of the leather dash but nothing showing the front portion near the windshield.  Anyone with an OE leather dash (not a recover) that can take some pics would greatly be appreciated.  

TIA
