DASH RUBBER TRIM

[1951 adam]

I orderd a replacement dash trim from a good source, and I find it to be very thick. I had to shim my dash to fit it up. Every photo I can find shows the early 2 light dash trim to be a smaller type molding, I dont think the part number changed in the 60s , Palmers book shows a 3 light dash photo with the thicker trim, all the early 2 light photos show the smaller trim....I had the thinner type on my dash, but wanted to replace it with a new one...my dash was set to it, ....any Ideas on this?

I think you are asking about the rubber gasket.
Where did yours come from?
How do these compare?

I have the rubber trim purchased at a swap meet there was a guy who sold all kinds of rubber profiles
the height is approximately 6.5 mm

That looks more like what I had originaly, look in palmers at the photos of the proto 47 dash, and the 48 to 52, the the 3 light, the one I orderd looks more like the 3 light pofile, thanks for the pics
