I'm located in SW Florida.

my current dash has a huge chunk cracked out out of it. Misc pieces on the back panel are cracked I'm assuming it's from when they changed the headliner.

The door panels are missing fabric and the bottom pockets were ripped off.

Now I'm wanting it all over again lol. Mine needs a total redo. I wanted more than just the interior...like the other mechanical's on stand by.

Found a complete dash off a 98 expedition for $120 thinking of pulling the trigger

It's grey but I can always paint it for that price. I know this will be one hell of a project because I've swapped an s10 dash once

But I can't stand the crappy condition of the interior it's just a shame.

Now to find some bucket seats and console and door panels

Sounds like a good way to go.

BTW: It's a good thing you didn't decide to buy that black Heritage interior and paint it. Crowds with pitchforks and torches would have soon ensued.

lol I'm sure it's the holy grail of interior.


Thinking of picking up a chitons manual or similar to help with the swap, I don't even know where to begin
