    Wanted: Speaker holes template/pattern from '65-'68 factory original dash

    I am aware of the recovering service of Tony at Autobahn Interiors, as well as dash, covering kit sold on Ebay. However, I am looking for a template/pattern of the factory original speaker holes found on the dash of 65-67 911/912. I was not successful in locating one in the archive. I am interested in punching out these holes myself, for a dash recover project on my '66. I was wondering if anyone currently has their '65-68 factory original dash cover out and about, and can help me by making a photocopy of the live size pattern of the factory speaker holes, on a photocopier, and mail the pattern to me? I can reimburse you for your effort or, if I am successful at replicating the speaker holes manually, I can make you a vinyl cover for your dash. Please PM me if you can help? Thank you.

    I've got a template for the holes for a '68 dash in Autocad DWG format.

    Thanks for all your help, gentlemen. I also spoke to Jerry Weiland on his dash recovering kit on Ebay, but decided to go through and document the whole early dash recovering process, including punching out speaker holes, for a local PCA chapter's newsletter. Thanks again for all your help.

    Same church different pew. Has anyone added the holes to the repro LWB dashes to make it appear correct? If so, how?

    I used the provided template and followed DarrylD's method for punching out the speaker holes, and it came out well. I'm glad I gave it a try and thanks again for all your help.
