Well pleased with mine. I am sure my one came with the velcro strips supplied. Also the dash mat seems to cut out the film that accumulates on the screen from the plastic dash. :goodjob2:

Never knew you could buy one without Velcro strips.
Coincidentally, I just bought one for my Toyota Corolla and it has Velcro tabs included. But the dash is so level, they're not needed.  :eek:

Yeah mine came with velcro but to be honest if it was not a freebie with the car I would not have purchased one.

Thanks for the link, I bought one from fitmycar in black. No reflection now which is great. It does slide down a little at times though and I just push it back towards the windscreen. Not really a problem.
You’re welcome  :goodjob2:

Try placing some of the supplied adhesive Velcro tape on each of the top edges to stop it sliding around.
I didn't see any supplied velcro tape in the bag, didn't come with any instructions, just the mat folded in half.  I can probably buy some though, thanks.

Could the velcro strip be stuck to the base of the mat :undecided: I'm pretty sure mine was stapled to the cardboard end packaging.

Best value is reject shop if they have any in your area. $2 for a box with about 1.5 metres of each type with a good adhesive. Just cut to size that suits.

Well consider me educated after your many great reponses, i find myself likeing some of these, the last one featured is so well fitting, does look pretty good... impressed.
I remeber seeing them in the late 70s and they were so bad fitting... they are great now, may look around for one now, as i plan to fit a hud soon..
