beautiful piece

**leddzepp** · 01-15-2014, 07:42 PM

Does it have "di-noc" printed on the back?

**TBONE1964** · 01-15-2014, 08:35 PM

I am interested in this if leddzepp does not want it. I also need to know what type of bezel it is made for? OE or Aftermarket? There is a obvious difference on how it will fit.

If you can verify this information, I will be interested.

Thank you,
Tom

Hi leddzepp, no it does not say di-noc on back

Hi Lloyd,

If you hold it up to an aftermarket bezel it will fit really nice in some areas and not very nice at all around other areas. The reason is some of these wood grain appliques are cut from a template that was based off of a OE bezel. If the wood grain is cut based off of a aftermarket bezel it may fit better but the problem is there are several suppliers of aftermarket bezels and they all have these small differences.

I actually have one here now that will not fit correctly. It will be very noticeable around the battery and oil pressure gauge holes where the applique is the thinnest.

I also have some wood grain appliques that will not fit an OE bezel correctly. You can see how frustrating this can be and ask some people on here about there experience and you will have many chapters to read.

I wish you good luck with your sale but I will have to pass on it for now.

Thank you,
Tom

**driller35** · 01-15-2014, 10:04 PM

Thanks Tom, I will hold it up to my original dash in truck tomorrow as I have no aftermarket here to lay up against

**PICKMUP** · 01-15-2014, 10:21 PM

If you are working with this thick 3M style, like driller 35 has for sale, you can actually use a drum sander and finesse it to fit nicely. All of the other ones I have seen are just thin contact paper and cannot be sanded for clearance/fit. This is the best one I have seen and hard to find. mho

**71blksuper4x4** · 01-15-2014, 10:35 PM

I believe these fit the counterpart dashes. I bought a few from an outfit over the summer and they told me they fit the counterpart dash. Trevor

**driller35** · 01-16-2014, 12:23 PM

U could be rite Trevor, PickMup is correct it is a heavy material

**driller35** · 01-16-2014, 11:07 PM

ttt

**jocko** · 01-16-2014, 11:43 PM

if it is the heavy material and I needed it, I'd jump on this. nobody sells repop woodgrain bezels complete as repops that I'm aware of - the heavy woodgrain applique is kinda hard to come by - or at least it was for me. I paid a pretty penny for one of Cheyenne superman's bezels and it's worth it, but they aren't common. I don't need one right now - but if this is the stuff I'm thinking of, it is head and shoulders above the applique film. Might need tweakin as mentioned above.

Thanks for the tip, Frank. I'm looking into a drum sander right after this post. It is a nice piece.

Lloyd,
The woodgrain looks awesome. With minimal effort, this will fit just like a glove and will look OEM and match my NOS glove box woodgrain applique perfectly. Thanks so much,
Richard

**driller35** · 02-07-2014, 01:26 AM

Good to hear Richard and glad the posties got it there in one piece
Cheers Lloyd

70LonghornCST · 02-07-2014, 02:11 AM

You're welcome, Lloyd. And with how well you packed the woodgrain, it could have fallen from the airplane onto my driveway and been just fine. The plexi-glass was a nice touch!
Thanks again,
Richard
