Default VFN Dash
Does anyone have one in a Camaro ? What do you think ? I was wondering if you can mount the stock cluster back in it along with the headlight switch ? I just want to get the heavy stock dash out and replace with this piece if possible to reuse some of the stock parts again.

I have my stock dash gutted and it weighs right around 5-6lbs.

I am sure that you could mount the stock cluster if you really wanted to. You would have to make all of the bracketry though...
