I swear your narrative skills remind me of the Legendary Painter Bob Ross. Overall your video was informative and well detailed. Great job bro and thank you for this. I'm definitely will get mine this week.

You said push forward on the spring . That’s not correct. You have to push UP.

I put a full skin last year and it looks great, but because factory dash defrost is engineered for efficiency, the extra skin is just enough to affect it and defrosting the windshield doesn't work well now. I wished now that I bought the half skin as I didn't really need the full skin.

@acountrylifestyle1137 2 ай бұрын

I had no problems with the defrost on mine, but a good thing to keep in mind.

I was shocked when I checked the price of the DashSkin today (9/24/24) that the price is still the same as it was when I purchased mine over 4 years ago. Still shows the price to be $134.95!

Nice build! After this year we're transitioning a lot of our garden to raised beds, so this was nice to see with how easy it is to build instead of buying pre-fab beds. Thanks and have a great day!

I apologize for the late reply. Here is the link to the website: dashskin.com/ I was shocked to see that the price is still the same as when I purchased mine over 4 years ago in 2020 at $134.95 as of today (September 24, 2024)

Thank you for this! We passed our 2011 Avalanche onto our son. His dash is cracked in almost the same spot. Do you know what we can do to help the back from slats from leaking?

@acountrylifestyle1137 6 ай бұрын

I didn’t have much problem with leakage in mine. I think the key would be to find out where the water is getting in and concentrate on what is wrong in that area.

How does this hold up as far as warping after baking in the summer sun? I live in Georgia and this is the concern I have.

Thank you for the video. 2 years later. I have the same truck you have and 2 years ago I got sick of the rattling noise from the cracks in the dash. I ended up paying 800 US dollars at the dealership to change. I wish I saw your video then Did you have a problem withe evap system? A week ago I dropped a thousand to change it.

@acountrylifestyle1137 10 ай бұрын

Ouch!!! I never got a cost from the dealership to fix mine but I figured it would be near $1,000 I didn’t have a problem with the evap system.

I’m curious if the dash sensor being buried a little is affected? Actually I don’t even know what that sensor does to be honest, lol. Thanks for doing this video. Every single Chevy pick up built from 2007 on has the airbag corner crack- this is an elegant solution!
