[DML] Re: Sun Protection Questions

["DMC Joe" <DMCJOE@xxxx>]

Kayo,
I am a full supporter of Dash Mat. I bought mine back around 87 or 88.
After about two to three years of use I noticed that my gray dash was
starting to turn brown. The fact is that there is no UV protection. The
carpet materiel is porous to allow dash speaker sound transmission. So I
think owners need to be aware of this.
BTW I still have the mat installed in my 260k mile D.
