83 firebird dash pad fit in an 82 camaro.

Are they the same?

They have minor differences, but they will interchange. For example, Firebird dash panels have separate platic speaker grilles, camaros just have slots in the pad. Also, in the center of a camaro pad on the front edge, there is like a 2.5" 'notch' in it. firebirds do not have this. These differences are hardly noticeable, its up to you if you mind them or not.

They won't interchange.. The Firebird dash is shorter front-to-back by about 2 inches.

 

Really? all years?
