Re: 91-92 dash

No but you can find them in the clasified secton here or on ebay. You will need about $150 to 200 U. S. currency.

Re: 91-92 dash

ouch... i guess theres no other choice but to bite the bullet and buy used, it would be nice if an aftermarket company would start making these interior pieces that alway seem to fall apart.

Re: 91-92 dash

1A auto sell repro's of the dash pads (I assume this is what you are after) look here: http://www.1aauto.com/1A/Dash_Pad_Co...evrolet/Camaro

I have purchased things from them in the past, but I don't personally think their quality is very high.

Re: 91-92 dash

If it's not the dash pad you are after, but the actual dash, I have a 91-92 style I would sell you. It's stripped; it has no A/C ducting or anything; just the skin, so you would have to swap over your ducting. It's considerably lighter when stripped, which may help you on shipping as opposed to a whole dash that is a bit heavier. PM me if interested.

Re: 91-92 dash

I know this would be high end but look at http://www.parts123.com/parts123/yb.dll?parta~partsort. This is Classic Industries and they appear to have reproduction dash pads, not caps. They are pricey $349 but I see that one of our sponsors supplies clean used ones for $300. I don't know anything about the accuracy of reproduction. I just thought I would throw this out there because I'm considering one if I can get past the price.

Re: 91-92 dash

the link didn't work for me, but it would be great if we could buy the dash pad repro and not just a dash cap.

Re: 91-92 dash

Hey guys,
I have a dash question for you. I bought a used dash pad off eBay that the guy stated was perfect and off of a 92 Camaro. When it finally arrived (After about 2 weeks of waiting!!) it is not at all like my dash pad I have now? My car is a 91 Z Vert and the speakers are molded in. The dash I got off eBay has speaker grills that come out and the small side vents are also waaay different. Could this dash pad have come off a 92 car? Or did I get ripped off by this guy? I paid about $200 bucks for this dash and I just don't think I want to put it in my car since it doesn't look original. What do you guys think?

You probably got a Firebird dash. I see so many listed on Ebay as Firebird/Camaro 82-92 will fit all years and models etc etc.. when in fact the Firebird dash is not the same and won't fit.

Thanks kapt. 88 Iroc here. Yes, go out to the car in the winter and open the door, dash cracks. Everytime. Did this on my 84 Z28 too. The cheapest fix is an AutoZone item, a piece of foam rubber with some kind of velour crap glued on it. Goes right over the dashtop and fits well. You may have to reglue it to the dashtop once in a while, as the supplied velcro sucks. The funny thing with these plastic dashtops is, once they crack (usually down the middle) they never crack again!

Re: 91-92 dash

I have a 92 Camaro, if you would like I could take a pic of my dash cover that I bought from Zeus Performance for $150. Everyone has told me that they couldn't tell that it was a cover.
