Not much of a problem. I did buy the original Ford Tooling and it was a perfect fit. I also replaced the defroster ducts and radio speaker while I was in there. I must have pulled a ground wire loose though when I put the instrument bezel back in. I don't have the overall lights. Gauges work, turn signal indicator works, oil and alt lights work but the lights for the overall bezel don't work.

The old and the new. The old one was warped and blackened with age. A few cracks. The wrinkling you see is from pulling it out. It was stuck down from age.



And here is the new. I still need to trim a little excess vinyl from under the end trim. Other than that, a perfect fit.

 

It came out really nice!

 

what brand is that? Dashes Direct?

 

What is that red **** on the very bottom of the dash for?

 

Warp Drive! No, seriously, emergency flashers.

 

Yep. Dashes Direct - original Ford tooling. Actually ordered it from California Mustangs. $229.95.

 

Looks great. Car looks brand new. I might go with that when I'm ready to change mine.
