Phil,
I bought my last two dashes from my TR6 from Priestige -- the
first being the plain one. Then I decided to
upgrade and got the high gloss one. I'm VERY pleased with it. I
forget the name of the exact wood,
but it isn't the dark woods. You could ask him to look up the one I
bought if you want - I'm the Jeff from
Jersey. Also, he (forgot his name - but he's easy to talk to over
the phone) made the glove box hole
with the TR5 measurements so that the finger pull actually fits.
Hope this helps,
Jeff N.
By the way, I'm almost sure there's a way to adjust the glove box
catch so that it will close tighter.
