Default Dash and pod covers

I was just looking and possible getting my dash redone in leather. My current dash is ok but I wanted to freshen it up. I went to Jager Engineering and saw they had this leather dash and pod cover. Has anyone used this or seen it installed on someones car? Here is the link:

A few others here have considered this option, but I'm not sure of any that have installed it yet.

Typically, all of Jager's products are excellent in quality, fit and finish.

Would I have to take the existing leather off of my dash or can this go overtop? How do I get my dash vents out without breaking them?

Sorry for delay in pictures- the entire thing goes over the existing dash and pod- there are precise holes cut for the vents and vent covers to make them look neat.]

Have too much to do and no time- will try to post pix later toay or tomorrow-
the only thing needed is a hair dryer, scissors, and about 35 minutes.

Mike - Did you have a leather dash before you put this cover on? Did you have to pull the existing leather off first? Did you have to take the dash out to put it on? hwo did you take the existing dash vents out? thanks!

Dash was synthetic I think with many unsightly cracks- no need to remove existing dash cover to install.

Excellent, I was just wondering because I am guessing that when they make the covers that they do it from a stock dash with no covering on it. I just didn't want to put this over my existing covering and find out that it doesn't fit properly because I had to take the cover off first. The pod cover is leather as well? Can't wait to see pics!!
