Dash/radio patch panel

I am sure I've seen patch panels for early Blazers somewhere, but I can't find them now that I need one. Help.
Thanks!

I don't think they make those yet, I've seen them for the 55-59 trucks. Hopefully someone will make them, because I have 2 that need it.

You're right, I swear I see one or two a week and now I can't find any. I would keep watching and one is bound to pop up sooner than later.

Re: Dash/radio patch panel

There was a radio patch panel posted in the classifieds section within the last couple days. I'm sure it was cut from an original dash rather than being a repo part.

Re: Dash/radio patch panel

I just sold one, whole dash actually. l'm pretty sure I can get more from the local yards. I see them all the time in junkers, just never had a need for it myself.

Alot of work if done correctly.

Re: Dash/radio patch panel

Thank you all. I guess I'll get out my cut off wheel & make my own. I think someone could make roll bars, radio patch panels, and no rattle hatch parts & stay busy forever!!
