What's the best source in your opinion for a replacement dash pad? The truck is not a restoration but I would like OE quality. Who should I avoid?

I need to replace the stock radio. Any suggestions on a new radio that would still retain the 2 knobs but upgrade to more power and digital readout?

Dash speakers are toast. What size are the factory speakers?

Thanks

LMC probably has everything you need. I'm not possitive on the speakers, but I'm sure they have radios and dash pad's.

Huntsville huh? Man i miss alabama.... I'm from b'ham originally...

Classic industries has the best dash pad I've come across, but its almost $600 shipped.

Brothers and LMC have replacement radios and speakers. When it comes time to do custom stereo let me know.

I have factory 81-91 GM dashes for $355

I also have Dashes Direct 81-91 "skinned" dashes that are pretty good, for $260

I used to be able to get Custom Autosound from a supplier but haven't checked lately.

The factory speakers in the dash corners are 3.5" round
