Under Drivers dash

I was wondering if anyone has a pic of under the dash on the drivers side...like right above the pedals...In my car all the wires under the steering column just hang down. Wondering if there is a piece missing or something..And should I have a cover over my fuses? It's a camaro....The wires hang down and sometimes get caught on my feet while i'm driving so im thinkin somethin's missing

Yes, a plastic piece covers that entire section (just as it does on the pass side), and it comes with a cover for the fuses. Hit the bone yards. The pieces shouldn't cost you more than a few bucks.

Check the history board, it seems the under dash plastic was an option on some models!

The reason I asked is because I have looked under the dash of every 3rd gen in the junk yards and they all seem to be missing it....there are only around 15 cars in my area though...and they are pretty picked over....They got a new z28 a while ago...I came a week after it arived an EVERYTHING was gone....i was gonna buy the whole thing too.......

yeah it was an option, my 87 sport coupe didnt have it, half the ones the company i work for have bought are missing it, while half have it, usualyl the ones that have it were butchered by aftermarket security systems or the ones ive seen which sucks because i need a good set for my iroc.

Strange. I've never seen a thirdgen without the piece in question, and I scavange the boneyards regularly. Anything is possible is GM though.

Mine was cracked off, hit up a junker $3 later I had the piece I needed. Easy to pop on there. Just search around, aparently its pretty easy to crack em, so someone else prob just snatched them up on ya. Good luck hunting.

If it's an option then does anyone know what it was called? What would the name of it be on the original sticker? Just wondering if mine came with it....
