Well, you have to be able to sew! If not, it isn't going to happen.

I did mine in velvetdid do any sewinglooks kinda ****ty

TAKE YOUR TIME, i rushed it and got a bunch of spots that bled throughand looks like man juice

when you use your adhesive, wat a minute for the glue to get tacky. If you don't it WILL bleed through

Keep in mind maybe the material you use. I had suede interior I got from a fabric store. Lasted a few months until the sun owned it. Maybe suede dash is not so good idea.

should be pretty easy to do.. i did the dash in my old car with some tiger print cloth from walmart and it turned out just fine... use 3M adhesive or it'll come off...

and definatly take your time!!!
