Saddle dash question

Hey Guys,

I'm looking for a nice saddle colored dash for an '86. I looked around a bit. Can't find one aftermarket. Do I need to paint mine?

Thanks,

John

Re: Saddle dash question

My '85 has Buckskin interior and the dash pad is dark brown. Not sure about an '86 with saddle,but the late R/V models had a saddle dash pad. That's what I got for mine (used) and feel it looks better. That one classic offers looks like it might be the same as my original one,but through '91 it's not correct.

Re: Saddle dash question

My 83 with buckskin has a dark brown dash (bought new, so it came that way).

ON this link you posted,

http://www.classicindustries.com/tru.../14031903.html

are those of decent quality? I'm not looking at a restoration or show truck, just want a decent looking dash. I was going to buy an overlay but this complete dash isn't much more than a cover would cost......

Re: Saddle dash question

My '78 with buckskin interior also came a factory with a saddle dash.
