WTB: 93-96 dash pad

**Mr. Brett** · 07-10-2013, 05:57 AM

I know I'm probably the only guy looking for a dash pad.....but seriously, anyone have one they want to part with? Looking for something decent, doesn't have to be perfect. I'll be trimming the front of the center vent for my wideband wiring anyway.

Ok, I'm about ready to give up on this. Mine is in 10 pieces and is completely shot. I can buy one from ebay or several vendors, but I don't want to spend $300+ only to cut it up for my WB (gauge is installed on the dash and wiring runs through the vent). Does anybody have experience with one of THESE covers? I could swallow that if it looks decent.

I have one of them. I got it from a different Ebay place years ago. Overall it looks fine. The mesh over the defrost vent is the only way you can tell it is not the OEM dash. I used a lot of silicone to glue it to my old dash, mine was only broke in 1 place. I also used a lot of small dumb bel weights to hold it down while the silicone dried. I say if you are going to cut it for the gauge this is the way to go. You may want to glue all your broken stuff back together first with maybe some cardboard to back it up.

How is the color? Does it match out of the box or does it need to be painted?

its a little more black than the lower dash area but really not that noticable. It matches the black plastic parts perfectly. HEre is a pic.. the flash shows the difference between the upper dash and the lower (airbag) area:

How do you get the cluster out of these cars without breaking the pad?
