Default dashboard

I need to know where I can get a new dashboard or dashboard cover. I do not want a carpet dashboard cover. Iwould like to have a vinyl one. Mine Cracked and then broke the rest of the way through. It is unfixable because it has a 10 inch square hole in it. I have to get this fixed because my wife will not let me do any other modifications to my truck until I get this fixed. I have also tried my local junk yards and have not been able to find one that will fit.

I used the dash listed in the aboe post and I thought it came out fairly well. It's an easy install, that will take a few hours at most. The hardest issue I had was glueing and taping my old dash back together under the cover so that I wouldn't have pieces falling apart under the cover.

The only fit issue I had as near the driver side door, where it did not want to match the curve just right. I'll just reglue it daown in a few monght when the temperature gets warm again and the vinyl is softer and I can get it to mold a little better.

I bought a new Dash for my truck from the dealer. I want to say it was like $160 or something. I get a discount through work though and am really not at all sure of the price. I might have paid a lot less than that. I know it was under $200 though. Now the problem was it was a PITA to put in. The mechanic from work and I put it in and it took both of us doing it 3 hours. It was not at all fun. You have some screws that are nearly impossible to get to. It was well worth it though after we finished as it looks a ton better than the cracked one.
