Preparing Your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover For Installation:
Preparation of your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover is very essential for safe and successful installation and this preparatory process involves the following steps:
In the first step, unfold the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover and position it over the dashboard of your vehicle.
Now, allow the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover to remain there for a couple of hours. Allow direct exposure to sunlight. It would help in relaxing the fabric material of your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover.
After proper relaxation, remove the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover from the dash and clean the factory dashboard cover. After cleaning, place the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover around your vehicle dashboard at ease.
Installing Your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover:
There are a couple of steps involved in this installation procedure as given below:
Cover the dashboard with your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover and stretch it towards the windshield base to the furthest possible extent. You can use a ruler to push the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover backwards as far as possible.
As soon as your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover is relaxed properly, it would perfectly fit with the contours of your vehicle dashboard within 1-2 days, depending on the temperature as well as the amount of sunlight to which the dashboard of your car is exposed.
Now, to find out whether Velcro attaching strips are really necessary for keeping the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover fixed at the correct position, you need to drive your car for a little while with the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover placed properly around your vehicle dashboard.
Installing Your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover By Using Velcro Strips:
For this purpose, a couple of installation guidelines are to be followed properly. These installation instructions are given below:
The Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover is available with a strip of the hook section of Velcro (the rougher part) along with the alcohol pad and altogether your dashboard cover is equipped with a loop section of the Velcro (the softer part) that is already attached to the edging via sewing. In the first installation step, undertake testing of the alcohol wipe on a small portion of the invisible factory dashboard to ensure that the alcohol wipe doesn’t cause any significant effect on the color of factory dashboard.
In the second step, after covering the dashboard with your Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover, use the alcohol wipe to cleanse underneath each of the pre-sewn Velcro pieces.
Thirdly, fasten a Velcro tab to a matching Velcro tab already sewn into the Molded Carpet Dashboard Cover.
Now, you need to take away the backing tape and press the cover on its correct position. After that, by applying pressure for sometime you can fix the Velcro fastener to your factory dashboard easily.
