NOS 1985-88 Dashboard Reply #20 – April 03, 2009, 10:30:31 AM I have a dash top cover.... but still prefer the look of the original dash. That is probably what I will end up doing.... I just figured for twice the cost I could have had a NOS dash. Yeah, right..... on that one.Maybe some of you should post some of your dash top pics dyed the color of the original dash to help change my mind. :) Quote Selected

NOS 1985-88 Dashboard Reply #22 – April 04, 2009, 07:48:33 AM I used one of these on an 1984 Chevy Truck and I really did not like it. It just did not fit well and the sun cooked the outta it shrinking it down. I know that is what happens to plastic in the sun, but has anyone had problems with the Cougar/Bird dash cap since installation? Quote Selected
