Default Dashboard cover info.

Thinking of just getting one of those dashboard covers to go over my rams cracked dash.

My bezel is also cracked so I searched around their site and found this.

From the desription it sounds like it's what I need but it's not shaped like the OEM one at all. The OEM one goes around the whole stereo and the steering wheel. See the bezel in the following link (not my truck, just a pic I found online.)

So what is the above "Instrument Bezel"? I emailed Coverlay Manufacturing and although they were quick to answer some questions they completely overlooked that question.

Also, they mentioned there is a slight color difference in their light gray dashboard cover and the gray of the OEM dash. Would it look horrible to just put a black on there?????

the bezel link above is just a cover for the top front edge. i'm not sure why you would need that.
my 01 bezel is a complete surround, just like your third link.

i don't have any experience with dash covers, but just for comparison, here's another.

its also a lot cheaper ??. call Geno's and ask them about it. i've called them before with questions and they were very helpful.

heres that same one for less money. they also have a expensive brushed alum bezel for $$$
