Easiest install yet! Take it out of the package, unroll and place on the dash. I have a couple; one leather, one suede leather and one cloth with red piping. Fairly inexpensive and doesn’t need any Velcro. The back of the dash mats are non-slip, so nothing else is needed. Needs to set for awhile in the sun to get it to lay flat but the easiest install of all.👍🇺🇸

I guess I can add the Pro Clip phone and tablet holders as well. The phone holder is very secure and in the line of sight as well so it’s very functional. Both work well and give added space.

I understand why people do / have to do this, but they just look terrible all the time. The fit on this one also doesnt appear to be that great, but its Chinese drop ship garbage, so not expected. :thumbsup: 🏳️‍🌈

Not trying to be snarky here, just wondering legit what is the purpose of these? Are you putting dirty / muddy things on the dash and this protects it? Is this to prevent a dash from cracking due to sun exposure 20 years down the line?

I come from the Tacoma community and no one did these so just making sure I’m not missing some Ford specific issue folks are protecting against with these.

Dash protector helps keep the dash from cracking due to UV damage. Cracks don’t come from sun exposure but ultraviolet exposure.

I don’t put anything on the dash at all. You’re asking for disaster if you do.

UV exposure is a large issue in our neck of the wood, especially at our altitude. It keeps the dash protected and in new OEM condition.

I made the mistake of not utilizing one once. Every car or truck we’ve owned has had one since.👍🇺🇸

I'm pretty sure that 99.9% of the UV rays that you're concerned about originate from sun and therefore sun exposure.

Pretty bold claim. Does this "sun" also cause global warming, because I did my own research and chem trails released by all the air planes in the sky are turning the frogs gay. Jet fuel cant melt steel beams yo.
