View Full Version : GUII dash mat with passenger airbag

I'm looking for a best quality dash mat for my GU that also protects the surface over the passenger airbag.
I'm sure I've seen them with slits on the sides that means the section over the airbag is like a flap.
The only ones I've seen available now don't cover that section so it's just a thin bit of mat that goes around it and I think it looks silly.

Anyone have something like that and can post up a pic?

I brought a dash mat on Ebay and the seller sent me about 2ft square of the same material so I could cover some gauges.
My Patrol does not have a passenger air bag just saying, as you could velcro a piece to the dash pad

Is this what you're after

Yes, I'm thinking of getting a non-airbag mat and simply cutting out above the airbag and sticking it on with Velcro.
I don't see a flimsy piece of mat having any effect on the airbag operation.

The vehicle is now 14 years old so what are the odds that it wouldn't go off anyway..

Ask the seller first if you can buy a piece what size about 400 x 200 maybe

I don't need to. I'll buy the full mat and just cut out above the airbag section and refix it so it covers like before but isn't attached to the main mat anymore.

Would look better if they could overlock the edge for you
