Camaro Dash pad cover on firebird

I have found more expensive dash pad covers that claim to fit both but will this fit a 1984 firebird?

That actually looks like it's for a Firebird and not a Camaro

I actually think they mean that they have them for both Camaro and Firebird .
the one you posted is definitely for a Firebird, Camaros are a totally different shape

Firebirds don't have the relief in the lower edge for the center A/C vents. Pics are a Camaro dash cover.
