[T3] Type 3 dash

[Keith Park]

I found out at the invasion that WCM DID repro the early dashes back in the
90's but they were of poor quality and poor fit, Alex had one on is 69.

Hey there , I was just wondering , why is it that every dash that I see for
sale is the slotted speaker grill dash ? 
My dash has the oval small grid of dots for the speaker grill. Is my dash
hard to find? Is it not being reproduced ?
