Hi Bluenoser! there's a guy on eBay selling these fiberglass skins. Anybody see this? I have a 98 C3500 crew cab. Wonder if they will work. I contacted the seller and said they were made locally. Not sure where but in the US. So I'm thinking taking the dash assembly out then changing the skins?

That looks to be the overlay style that just sits on top of the existing dash. You cannot separate the top part from the bottom...it’s one complete assembly.

Coverlay makes the dash covers as well but they’re paint to match.

Here’s a how-to when I swapped mine...

I just bought a dash. A fella on here suggested car-parts.com I did a nation wide search by not entering a zip code on the search page. Found one from nordstromsauto.com is in Garretson South Dakota. Online Salesman JOHN FLANAGAN helped me out.
$125 for the dash, but $175 !! to ship to Houston TX !! Don't want one from around here, I might have the same problem with this Texas heat! $300 bucks. Done, well almost.....

For their labor involved, that sounds like a good deal. It’s got to be in better shape than anything down here, that’s for sure.

This thread is so incredibly useful and chocked full of great info! Can someone sticky it (if it hasn't been already, I didn't see it on the list)?

Pulled it yesterday, shipping today. Just the panel. The pic above is when the Yukon came in their yard. This below is what should come in by next week.
I pray is a great one!!

The dash wasn't what I expected. The defrost screw mounts and defrost grill were all cracked. XPS deliverd it in just a box.

Pictures don’t show up for me for some reason, but sorry to hear it wasn’t quite what you expected.
