A universal mat is a rectangle you cut yourself. This one comes off a mould taken from your dash, so the demister slots line up, the sensor stays uncovered and the speakers are not muffled.
INSTALLATION
Fitted in ten minutes. No glue.
Nothing is glued to the mat and nothing is permanent. The strips lift off cleanly if you ever want to take it out.
1
Test fit
Lay the mat on the dash before you attach anything. Check every vent, sensor and opening lines up and stays clear.
2
Clean the dash
The strips need a clean, dry surface. Silicone dashboard protectants stop the adhesive bonding, so clean those off first.
3
Attach the strips
The supplied strips are one-sided — adhesive down onto the dash, hooks facing up. No second piece of Velcro needed.
4
Press it down
Return the mat to the position you tested and press firmly. The hooks grip straight into the carpet backing.
Folded in transit? Leave it on the dash for a few hours and it will relax back into its moulded shape.

Over the life of the car, the mat is the cheapest line in that table.
The Australian Sun
UV dries the vinyl until it splits, and once it's cracked it doesn't go back. A car park in February does more damage than a decade of driving. The mat takes that punishment instead.
A dashboard doesn't crack overnight. It just stops being new.
Cut, moulded and bound in Brisbane
Not imported and relabelled. Every DashLux mat is made to order in a Brisbane workshop, moulded on a tool cut for your vehicle's dashboard — one of more than 600 we hold.
That's why we fit models the big brands skip, and why a fit problem gets sorted by the people who made it.
