The pink material is cracking and I'm wanting to know if you can order new parts?

I have a 208 but don't know what 'pink' material you are referring to.
If you mean the panel that the gauges are mounted in, mine is black.

I have a 1998 the console and the insert in each side are some kind of pink/tan colored leather looking material. The sun has eaten it up and I need to replace. Any ideas of a better material or replacement part.

I don't think my 208 has those inserts. A picture would help

I may still have an original dash panel from a 1996 208. I took it out and put in a new one when I added some gauges. I'll look around in the garage and see if I still have it. Think it had slots for speed and tach only but will have to look to be sure. If I have it, it is yours for shipping cost only.

The OP may be referring to the entire dash casing, which surrounds both the instrument panel and the e-box opening. In 97 and 98, GW used a brown vinyl type material. From 99 on they cast it from fiberglass, and in 2000 they expanded the opening of the box.

Parthery is correct. The material is falling apart. I think it was just on a couple models. Thanks for any help.
