Newbie Dash Pad Question

Are the Dash pad's from Trans am all interchangeable, and if not, will one from a 1986 fix into a 1987??

Thanks a bunch

P.S. yes I did a search but couldn't find anything besides classified ads selling them. I have the change to buy a MINT one from a 1986 Firebird, needs to know if it will fit in 1987 Trans Am. Also, how much to pay for a MINT one?

they will both fit though 82-84 is more square in my opinion.

I've seen new in box sell for around $400 on ebay.

Average is around $200 for a mint un-cracked/un-warped dash pad.

They can be as cheap as $50; just don't expect to find one that cheap.
