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?

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
http://www.classicparts.com/1981-91-...info/30%2D815/

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...

story of my life.......those 81-91 wont fit my 77 dash will it?

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

losal78chevy, post pictures when you get it back. Have thought of this for my 84.

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 · 03-05-2012, 06:34 PM

That one is a full pad.
