I got black suede from a fabric store and some 3m adhesive spray... my advice is to get a somewhat flexible fabric to make it easier to mold into the panel's shape...

+1...no need to add to it if it's in good shape ;)

i covered my glove box black suede and it didnt go with the dash. ill probably just take it off and use goo gone (thanks s13silvia03) and see how it looks. ima head to the store a get some right now.

I did the glove box in black vinyl along with door speaker cover plates in black vinyl. It's cheap, easy, and better looking (I'm referring to the interior LOL).

I did my best to re-upholster mine. I found some grey vinal that best matched the factory leather seats and glovebox. I would have left the black vinal underneath the leather inserts, but it was also pulled away from the door panel. (It gets hot down here in FL.) I just took my time and did the best I could. It looks ok to me. It's not professional work, but it's better than the factory cloth falling off. After about a year and a half, I only have a small bubble of air showing under the vinal. I need to redo this project again, but it's still bareable. It's not a show car....just my daily driver.

I spent $40.00 on cloth, glue, and a bit of batting to go around the outside edge (to clean up the joint). I also rewrapped the sunvisors in the same vinal.

Good luck...
