So, we discussed a lot of vinyls and I decided on this: Diamante, DIA-6615 Carbon

Diamante*DIA-6615*Carbon Vinyl fabric

It has a matt finish so should reduce glare on the rare sunny days we have in England. I'm seeing the guys on Friday and hopefully will get some better photos, but I think Greg used a heat gun and with another pair of hands stretched it over the dash for a snug fit. I can't wait to see it, but from the photos it has turned out even better than I expected.
lol never mind, you already posted the source
