Re: Dash pads???

I had issues in my 80 where the clip in the 85 pad was pushing into the vin plate on the dash, keeping the pad from sitting right. And the cluster bezels from the earlier trucks sit out on the edge of the pad, where the later trucks have the bezel sit into the dash, and this caused trouble for me as well. I, too, though, have heard that it can be done.
