if you want one right away, classic industries has them, not cheap tho. Also, if its not cracked too badly, you could glue it and have it covered. do a search, there are some threads about this. just fyi...

Check out 6litereaterdesigns.com. He has them for Camaros and TA's. His are supposed to be better than stock.

His is a pad that sits on top of your current one. Although I could be mistaken. Pretty sure tho...

I have a nice light/medium gray Dashmat brand dash cover. I had it in my '94 Z28 but took it out and put it in a box since that car never sits outside (except in the pits at the track .) It's exact fit for '93-96 Camaro dash, not some generic size.

Shoot me a PM if interested.

I thought 6LE started making actual dashpads a while back and the covers? I could be wrong but I thought he had enough interest in an actual dashpad.

Default dash pad

I have seen them on the bay for as much as $300+, there are some that like said go on top of your broken one for $140. Dont know how well they fit / look. also some will tell you where the speaker grill is suppose to be is just a hole, says you have to glue in a screen..

Yea, the bad thing is that if you find any at a junk yard, by the time you try and pull it out, it will be in a million pieces, Some times you get lucky if you find a "Fresh" wreck that was garage kept, I got lucky a few year ago and found one like that, Paid $60.00. Since they are plastic, I guess there is nothing to apply to keep them pliable, they just get hard and crack and break

Mine broke in half a while ago and I had an upholstery shop glue it back together then wrap it in alcantera. Looks amazing and there's no glare on the windshield anymore!

Crash pad - 1993-96 - 1993-96
