So this is something new, and frankly an experiment. For the pad I will use LMC’s pad.  It’s night and day better than these dash skins.   I want to reinforce my dash frame though either with fiber glass or Carbon Fiber cloth and resin at the stress points.  For those who have tackles this project these dash’s are prone to cracking near the OD and radio mount.   As a test I am
reinforcing this skin with fiber glass.  All bought at Home Depot for 20.00 bucks.  I used it to patch the dash too.

To install the dash against the firewall I threw away the poor quality plastic fittings and went with some cage nuts purchased from Ace.  These take a 5/16th bolt and hopefully will provide a stronger connection.

Tomorrow I will begin removing the dash and buttoning up the panel and electrical.  
 
Taking a poll, LMC or Geno’s for the replacement pad?
