i have a quick question to ask: on my steering column, there used to be a collar/trim that covers the gap around the column as it goes through the dash. i'm sure this was plastic as mine is long gone, screws r still there, and u can kinda see the silouete on the dash paint, but that's it. how hard r these to find? the sun was not kind to the softer materials on batmobile. --j

as you said, the part is made of some sort of plastic which dries out and crumbles. The part can be found in cool danmp climates..parts cars under trees, in forests, and the like.

i was hoping that the extra hot climate is what did mine in. guess i will try to find one. maybe the guy i spoke to about the windshield still my have it being a eastern car. i'll find out eventually, hopefully before he get rid of the rustbucket. thanks for the info roger, just wanted to know if i find one if i should jump on it. l8terz --j
