For accurate material for a recover you may try contacting World Upholstery. http://www.worlduph.com/porsche4.htm#DASH

Aside from kits they probably carry the raw material.

"Installation of OEM dash or leather dash recovery kit involves the removal of the dash and windshield and is best left to the pro"
