1990 IROC-Z dash pad woes...

I was told that the 1990 IROC-Z dash pad is a one-year item. Is this correct?

I'm trying to replace the worn out and broken bits in my wife's car. Am I just looking in the wrong places or are actual replacement dash pads that hard to find? I've found the dash pad covers online, but the cracks in her pad are so severe they're actually bowed up a bit at the edges of the cracks (gotta love the Florida sun), so I'm wondering if the cover would lay correctly. And of course, I'd really rather just replace the whole thing.

I appreciate any tips or info anybody might have for me.

I believe all camaro dash pads are the same style and fit between 1989 and 1992. Could be wrong though... One thing I do know is that I currently have the dash pad off my old 90 RS on my 92Z28 and it fits just fine. Hope this helps...

All dash pads from Camaros 82-92 will fit all 82-92 camaros, the only difference I know of is the 82-84 dash pads have lines on the lip.

The speaker grilles changed for the '89-'92 pads. The grilles are identical except for the "sound" holes - they're arranged in a diamond pattern on the '89-'92 pads, and those pads seem to be awfully difficult to locate.

I agree, I have a 86 dash pad in my 83 camaro they all should be universal they are diff. styles but should all fit. The 82-84 dash pads were the best imo they were thicker and had the lines on the top (better looking)
