You might be better off making one. Use some stainleesss cut to the right size, and double sided tape.

I was thinking of just welding up the holes as I don't plan on installing a radio and won't have a need for the heater controls with no hvac system. I'm also deleting the ash tray. I believe That will be the easiest route.

I bought a radio delete plate from board member Teeitup, you might pm him and see what he has. He's cool and easy to deal with.

Re: Where Can I Find A Heater Delete Plate For MY Dash?
Made mine out of a ac controller as I like the chrome that matches the radio. Does not look at all like a oe delete plate but I think it looks good.

You can use a radio delete plate. You just have to fab a different way to hold it.

Re: Where Can I Find A Heater Delete Plate For MY Dash?
If you have any salvage yars in your area check the big 1-1/2 ton and bigger trucks. They sometimes had heater delete. Also keep an eye out for tach dashes. Back in the early 90's i scored three tach/ vacuum dashes, 68 bucket seats and console and a real deal truck tilt from a yard in La Grange tx for $100 (!)
