Mine was JACKED, so looking to replace. Are dash pads still available for 73-80s? Even if they're black, I wouldnt mind changing from medium blue to black interior since I only have to worry about the dash, doors and seat/belts

Try LMCtrucks.com
They have them listed,online/catalog.

thats one of the places on my list to shop from. Many though, dont list who the manufacturer is and I wonder if they are all OER

$189 is quite a bit cheaper than most others i have seen. I might give that a shot sometime in the future. Anyone on here used that brand?

[THE "10" SILVERADO]

I bet it is the same type that Classic Industries has. Molded urethane. I got mine for about $190 from Classic Industries a while back. It was OK but not great. Pretty flimsy (the metal part was so thin) and was "cut to fit". I had to cut a lot off the sides but other than that it fit fine with no warpage or anything.

Classic parts had genuine GM dash pads.
They are around $400 though...

i was going to use classic industries but i found a upholstery shop im wilmington, ca. because i was going to try and redo mine. but after talking to the owner and finding out i would spend around 70 bucks on material to try to fix mine. i asked him if they fix them and redo the vinyl on the dashpads. he told me if i pulled it out and took brought it over he will charge me 110 and he'll have it done in a week. cause mine is all f'ed up also. il have some pics on how it come out for you guys

Classic parts? I suppose that is the all black one? I dont mind paying some coin like that for original parts.

81-91 dash

It says they come in varying colors, paint to match, and limited quantities.
Price has gone up $544

Looks like they don't have any more 73-80 GM dashes...

It will fit, but you will have to change the trim on the right side as well.

I was happy with mine from Tuckers.



Went in pretty smooth... I did break half of the clips getting them on the back of the pad.. had to reorder more.. but it went in smooth fit well.. I'll try and sap a picture of it in..

Is that a cap or an actual full dash pad itself? How do you guys feel about the plastic caps they sell that go right over the old dash, I have heard some on here say they are real think but that isnt a bad thing because it doesnt add any bulk and ends up looking like a new dash when installed properly and glued down.

[vegas80step]

That one is a full pad.
