I was always under the impression (from the press) that they were plastique! Good to know it's an urban myth then - even though I'm surprised that they ARE metal for the sake of crash impact safety etc!

It was different in the 50s when Cadillacs had pointy metal things on the dash that speared their owners in a crash!! shocked

Can't see the dash strip causing any damage. It is about as strong as foil frown
