Here are some pictures of the Joshua WoodTrim Kit. It looks like a perfect and is easy to install. I used a hair dryer to make the pieces soft and maleable. Be careful of not stretching the larger pieces when they are soft. I found that letting them sit and relax after taking off the backing off the glue was a good idea.
Joshua Tree folks were pleasant to deal with. I did need another of the small glue primer sticks they supplied and they were quick to get it to me.
Thare's a piece that you put on in the wrong spot... on the glove box - the little piece on the right is actually meant to be placed inside the left hole (thumb position) of the glove compartment lock. I'll try and post a picture to show you.
Perhaps I'm wrong, but in the paperwork the part is labeled left glove box.... Seemed to fit better in the left side of the lock than on the right edge to me
That's weird...that piece on exoticwooddash's is in the schematic as "right of glovebox"...see piece 17 below.
BTW, the joshua tree looks great -- I really like the thin trim pieces around the overhead consoles -- exotic's were a bit too clunky-looking for my taste so I left them out, and lacked the thin "trim ring".
Rail,
What did you use for the right side of the glove box?
Maynard,
No clue as to how long they will last .. but I can't tell the difference between the factory pwood and Joshua Tree pwood so hopefully they'll age together.
Looks great. A couple questions. Is the kit real wood? What was the worry about stretching the larger pieces? It looks like the kit has pieces that are the same as the portions of the original dash that have plastic wood trim. Do the aftermarket pieces just fit over the plastic wood pieces on the dash?

1. It's pwood (plastic wood), not real wood, just like the original stuff.
2. Once warmed up, it's easy to stretch the pieces which make it harder to fit perfectly.
3. There are no overlapping pieces with the origianl trim pieces - all are unique.
Maybe they'll let you buy just that piece. I tried getting just the rear cup piece from exoticwoodtrim but they said I had to buy the whole kit - they won't sell it separately.

Dirty pictures of your X, that is. We have plenty of pictures of our pristine vehicles on this forum. How about some pictures of them when they are not at their best?
Here's one from last weekend. The slushy roads take a toll on the white!
