Yes I did them myself. I bought the material as you see it. It had the plet's backing everything on it just cut and put on the panel. I did the driver's side twice, passenger side once and still have enough for the headliner and I got the dash cover plather too for $75.00. I have enough of it to do the sun viser's too!

That is a corvette leather wheel. It's been in the truck for over 10 years. I have corpral tunnel in both hands and it makes it more comftable for me to grip. I agree it needs to be redone just haven't gotten to that point yet.
