Is the whole dash torn out..? What are you're plans for the car?

If you're wanting to make this into a nice fast beauty i'd say buy some sheet metal and make you're own dash. It's not expensive, you'll throwout a lot of weight, plus it will give you you're own custom look.

You may need to go to a junkyard and take some pictures. It helped me a lot. But for the most part they will only fit in certain connectors. If you study them a little you will notice missing terminals inside the connectors and this is an easy indication of what to look for in the corresponding plug, plus they match up and so forth. Just start connecting them and you'll find out that your probaly only dealing with a couple that can connect in multiple areas.
