I've only seen a pic or two of a grey leather-wrapped binnacle and would like to get a better look.
Got a few pics to share?
Grey interior....thanks!

There's some nice shots of the Wheeler Dealer car's DMC-CA leather wrapped binnacle here:

This is the kind we do. The DMC California ones are padded. binnaclestitched.jpg

Is it possible to leather wrap the dash in the same fashion?

Dave- your pic looks just like mine from DMCCA (circa 2004 or so) - I don't think it is padded. You've seen it.....what did you think.
"Jimmy" - At the time I got my binnacle, DMCCA was doing leather dashes, as well. Actually, they don't do them...they have a local artist do them and I use the word artist because the ones I saw were exceptional. It is a very tight fit around the defroster outlets, but everything looked great. I do not know if they still offer that.

I'll need to see one in person, but I think they look really good. I like the DMCMW stitching....seems a little bit more "subdued."
Hopefully I'll get a good look at a few at DCS; I'll have a new fiberglass repro with me, and if I prefer the leather-wrapped, I'll be looking to sell/barter.
That looks really nice. I like the grey stitching a lot. There was some talk in the other thread about why DMCCA did white stitching instead of grey, and the logic was that the center console has white-ish stitching, so it would match better. I can see their point, but in a photo by itself I like that grey stitching better. Would be interesting to compare in real life in a car.
