Thanks to everyone who asked us to stock this product, we have finally managed to get some made with the correct profile and it looks great.

Anyone who has suffered their pay and display parking ticket or some coins fall down the void between the windscreen and the dasboard will know what this is !

Picked one of these up at the open day, we actually got a parking fine due to a ticket falling down the void, we tried to challenge it but the terms are the ticket must be displayed so ended up costing us £40
 
@Everything VW California , maybe good to add a picture taken from the view outside , see how that looks like. Maybe invisible behind the black in the window .
;)

Seems again a winner....:thumb

Just fitted mine, it's clearly visible not masked by the black surround of the windscreen :-(

Are you sure you have it the correct way around as there are two ways it will fit, I had mine fitted incorrectly until someone advised me at the meet it was wrong way round ! Take a pic?
 
Maybe the gap is different on the T6 with different Dashboards as an option. On my T5.1 it is hidden by the black windscreen surround.
 
It doesn't matter to me what it looks like inside or out just so long as it stops anything falling into the abyss :thumb

Interesting, my 5.1 the rubber is easily visible above the screen surround. I wonder if there are variations to the screen surrounds? Not that it bothers me, it's only reading this thread that made me look! It also made me put it the correct way round, looks a lot better.
 
Only fit one way round and I cut the ends at an angle to mate up to screen side rubbers. Looks part of factory supplied dash, on T6 anyhow.
Bought pre shop supply on experience/advice of previous Forum item thread.
 
So where do I stuff the bottom edge of my front screen blind? Will it squeeze in there or do I have to remove the seal every time?
 
I guess that's a minor inconvenience compared to a parking fine.
