Did the dash pad what a pain. The new one wouldn't go on for nothing . Old one on and off easy as could be had me stumped for a while, till I noticed the studs on the new pad were a good 1/4 inch longer than the original. Little work on the studs with a cut off wheel and it slid right in . Bought from the Truck shop . And restored the gauges. Used mothers headlight restorer to get the scratches out of the plastic lens.
