Glove box, vanity & console felt

This topic has been discussed before but I wanted to share my opinions on a new item from S-I for 63-83 Avantis.

As part of my restoration, I'm putting a new dash pad and as part of that the old glove box felt had to go when the fiberglass dash base was cleaned and painted.

Much to my surprise, I see that S-I now sells pre-cut felt kits in two colors, burgundy or black. I ordered burgundy since my original felt was that color and just received it. It looks pretty neat. There are 5 pieces for the golve box, vanity and pieces for the console.

It you want to refurbish your interior give it a try. It's $26, which may seem a lot for felt, but you'll save hours (days?) in trying to make templates and cutting the stuff.

No, it's not adhesive...and I haven't glued it down yet.

I guess you would use the ordinary adhesive spray...hopefully not too fast drying.

Unlike carpet, the felt probably isn't stong enought to survive being pulled off after it sets up for any length of time.
