I went to 2 dealers this week.
First dealer estimate: $1200 for a new dash installed

Second dealer: $1600 for a new dash installed.

I didn't really stick around to find out why the price was so different, but the service manager chased me down outside and gave me a phone number to call...a local trim restoration shop. I stopped by the shop and they came out and took a look.
"Ah, yeah...another Contour. $220 or so."

Seems the dealer I went to keeps sending them down to this shop. He said he's done dozens and they seem to hold up pretty good. He said he uses Silicone cement.
Thoughts?
