1987 Trans Am dash pad - what fits?

Hello, the dash pad in my Trans Am made it from 1987 till this winter then cracked. We had a really cold winter this year.

What year dash pads fit, 1982 to 1992 Firebird and Trans Am? Do Camaro dash pads fit from 1982 to 1992?

Thankyou for any help.

John

Just Firebird dash pads only,no Chevy's. 82-84 are different than 85-92 but they all fit.

Yes I saw a few on E-bay, but if you think they are expensive, us poor old Canadian guys have to pay shipping, customs fees, money exchange and taxes that usually comes out to be about another 50% on top of the E-bay price. Just multiply the E-bay price by 1 1/2 and that will be pretty close to the Canadian price.

If it was made offshore add duty to that also. In this case they are made in North America of course.
