hey guys, i bought this 82' about two months ago.

It should be on the drivers side dash, right behind the windshield. Is there an opening on the dash pad for it? If not, you may have the wrong dash pad installed (73-78), and the VIN is hiding behind it.

so your saying its mounted on the cab behind the dash pad, not on the dash pad itself?

It is riveted to the metal dash, underneath the dash PAD. I am saying, if it isn't there, you MAY have the wrong dash pad in the truck covering it up.

Can you post a pic of the dash pad, and perhaps a close up picture of the lower corner of your drivers side windshield...taken from outside the truck?
