Dashmat length?
Hey you guys with DashMat's when you first put it on was it like to short to cover from end to end? Does it like gotta stretch or something. Cause I got one and it doesnt reach all the way and the guy told me that the sun has to make it stretch out..
true or not?

Mine was a bit short and over the years it has shrunken! Its 2" too short now compared to 1" when I got it.

do you have one? Was your the correct length? Mine is like alomst 3/4 to short on both ends...the dash vents on the ends are particially covered up when I try to split the differnence. When I line it up right on one side its way short on the other...heres some pics..

I hope you returned it, I just brought one from Strauss auto parts with "DSaint" engraved on it and it fits perfectly.
