My first question is are there any third gen dash pads without the holes for the speakers?, and my other question is are there any aftermarket gauge panels for our cars that use stock gauges or stock appearing gauges, but use quality gauges, or a certain year of f-body that will have better quality gauges than my '85?
No, all dash pads will have speaker holes. Covan's Classic makes a gauge panel which accepts aftermarket gauges, but fits in the stock cluster location:
I'd prefer stock looking gauges, and I don't want to pay $119 for a piece of plastic from covans. Still, does anybody know if any year of f-body has better gauges than mine?
I'm pretty sure the radio delete cars still have the speaker grilles on the dash, just with no speakers installed. I can't imagine GM would make a separate dash pad for the small amount of cars with the radio delete option.

Are radio delete cars very uncommon? I've never seen one. Maybe somebody makes an reproduction dash pad for radio delete cars, if they are even different.
if i had to get gauges i would go to classic industries they carry 100's and 100's of parts for all camaros firebirds and novas u guys should check em out and by they way they have bad *** gauge clusters..... i dunno tell me what u think
