Default Geno's Dash Pics...Warning: 56K=FAIL

Somebody on the forum here PMed me about the dash pics of the Geno's Garage Dash cover I bought a year ago. Here's the pics of it installed. It's made by a company called Palco in NV.

note the slight fitment issues at the passenger airbag and the defrost vent. The vents are thru the window and reflecting a lot of light, so look closely and you'll see the gray underneath.

Appreciate you posting those pic's. I was on the edge of purchasing one from there just a few weeks ago, but something told me not to.

I actually like it. It's 10X better than the exploded dash I was looking at before. You won't find one that fits perfectly.

I do need to dust a little bit, and repaint those vents.

Can't see it in the truck because the vents are always in the shade, but that pic looks total hack job.

aim4squirrels,
I understand the cover is easier and cheaper than replacing the entire dash but, if you had a low mileage, great condition ram that you were going to keep for many years would you spend the time and money to replace the dash? I may have to make that choice/decision someday.
Thanks for the pics.

Well,

Dash Board = $900.00

Dash Cover = $150.00

It was an easy decision

Sounds good. Im holding out for a deal in the classifieds at the moment. If it falls through, you've sold me.
