I was replacing the foam and dash vinyl when I realized that the squiggles on the metal were letters in cursive writing. This is just to the left of the instrument area.
 It looks to me like someone in the factory signed the car. Was that at all common? When I put the new foam on, I tried to glue around the letters. |

QUOTE(ConeDodger @ Jan 19 2024, 10:17 PM)  Mine said the color of my car in German. well. that sorts the color thing out. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) random dashboards sometimes the color of the car sometimes not. mine looks like it was sprayed metallic blue (dashboard) but the car it went in was phoenix red, so the "rot" makes sense. stick this dash in the red car heinrich. ......but. additionally i have 65 written on there. WTF is that? and its not 65th car of the day.  and then after the VW production number (which says its not 65th car of day) is what looks like an A. Amerika? i dunno.  |
