Default Saf dash top into 3 door ?????

As above

saw on another thread a 3 door with saf to dash

now my dash, and dont laugh, has been covered in black leather when it was retrimmed....

now over years wereas you guys have had cracks to worry about mine has had the leather shrink and start to come back from the windscreen......

ideally a saf dash wont have the pants grille and will be black option too.......

now the early safs with leather had black dash but plastic I believe and the later ones have leather, but I have been told the very late ones are a different shape and wont fit ??

Any help much appreciated......

I guess another option is a saf grey dash and get covered in black leather to match bottom section in my car already......

Thanks for the reply, I know it goes straight in just wanna know if the very late ones i.e k reg will fit as they are black/raven leather and not black or grey plastic

cheers

Whilst later ones fit they are quite different with a curvy bit over the top of the clock area, look horrid to me.
The sapph dash although will fit, there remains a gap between the dash and the bottom of the pillar panels either side of the screen.
