I'm not sure what brand it was but I put a urethane dash pad in a friend's truck last summer. Absolute JUNK. They're soft and flexible, it's like working with a limp noodle. It's only been ~6mo and the overhang over the gauges is already sagging down some. Eventually it'll hide the tops of the gauges. DO NOT. I repeat, DO NOT BUY A URETHANE DASH PAD.

Either get a nice dash pad like we offer:

Or get one of the Coverlays. I've used the Coverlays in the past on a couple different cars, they're great for a driver and they stuck well each time. You just have to spread the load and have weight/clamping force in many spots.

We get them from Dashes Direct. They're just about the best ones on the market from what I've seen.
They are alright, grain, color and overall fit is good. Only issue on one I purchased [same brand] was the left upper corner of gauge bezel. Had to grind material off the bezel was noticeable.
