Installed New Dash Pad!!!

Post by Jay's67F100 »

I spent the afternoon yesterday installing the new repro dash pad that came with the truck when I bought it a week ago. It's a decent repro, except the speaker vent holes are cockeyed. You can see in teh pic it's closer to the driver's side. One of the mounting studs was off a lil too, nothing a lil bending didn't take care of. It wasn't too bad, except for the center studs that are behind the defrost hoses. A ratchet wrench helped big time on those. My hands are a lil cut up, but the end result is great! Realy spruced up the look of the interior. 8)
