Yeah but thats a reproduction. The guy on Ebay has original GM pads.

86 GMG · 07-19-2005, 09:07 AM

I want a GM part because most of the posts on repro pads have said they don't fit as well.

I have only found one good one in a junkyard in 4 years of looking. I told my friend he could have it, and I would take the next one. We never found another, and he got rid of his truck and bought a Dodge.

finding a crack free dash pad is like finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow

That's the biggest problem. Most GM pads fit like crap, the aftermarket ones are even worse.

I could care less what color I find. All my interior has been re-dyed so even if I found a maroon pad it probably wouldn't match my interior perfectly anyway....
