    Dazzling Dashboards, Dude!!! That's awesome! I was wondering about attempting to fit one like that in my '86 about 3 weeks ago. This is my first time looking in the 'appearance' forum. That way, I could use Escalade gauges or something. You have to give details on how this fit... major reworking or what?

    Two Thumbs Up! Awesome!

    Great job&#33; I can&#39;t wait to see it when you get the door panels and everything the same color.

    I think I will just redo the doors in black but, with some kind of tan insert. I was thinking about doing the same with the seat. Somebody said I should do a big chevy bowtie in tan across the seat.

    1BADC10 It wasn&#39;t to hard. Just take your old dash apart but leave the metal part in. Just take out the ash tray, cluster, glove box, a/c vents and the one piece cracked up dash cover. You should just have the metal part of the dash left. A 04/05 dash does not come out in one piece, so it will not go in once piece. There are a lot of parts that make up a 04/05 dash. ............... This will take all day to write.
    When you get ready to do it, I&#39;ll give you my step by step.OK

    That came out nice&#33; I have to admit I hade my doubts as to if it would even fit into the space without major reworking.

    that looks awesome...but wut red said about putting both large guages in the console and putting the smaller guages in a stacked position were the radio went...you can then put a mount for the radio where the ash tray used to be just cut and trim
