Dash Trim Kit = Crap?
Hello 3rdgen,
As always, I would like to thank you for all the help you all have provided me. I am looking to get my interior done in all black (1989 RS LS1/T56).
For the dash, all I can find are these crappy sick on trim kits. Is everyone using these? WHY ARE PICTURES OF THESE KITS IMPOSSIBLE TO FIND?!
Where can I find a kit that replaces OEM dash trim as oppose to sticking on top of it?

The dash mounts to the firewall, the colored part that you see is the "trim" (including the pad).
basically I want to know how to turn my dash from brown to black, and I dont want a "stick on" sleeve that go's over the old parts.f
HOW DO I MAKE THE DASH BLACK? WHERE DO I BUY THE PARTS? ANYONE?

Re: Dash Trim Kit = Crap?
yea, I thought of using trim paint. My console and dash are 20 yrs old and in bad condition. alot of the parts need to be replaced. I guess I would use the paint, IF i could find replacement parts to install first.
Guess I am assuming the dash parts are sold in black. Am I correct or wrong? How did you restore your dash?

Re: Dash Trim Kit = Crap?
you can buy the dash already in black, including all the trim. i believe that would be the best; most efficient way to make sure its done right and comes out looking the best.
