What was your method on upholstering the dash pad?

I use a 4 way stretch upholstery vinyl. It's stretched around the top, and glued around the back side. I use the same stuff for the door panels. Works well, I used the same stuff on my k10, and it has held up very well.

Do you have any before pics of the dash? Just curious how bad it was. What prep work did you do?
