Rear Dash Pad
« on: December 23, 2009 - 06:29:26 AM »
What is the original look of the rear dash pad on a E body? I've seen a couple but I don't know what is correct. Any pictures would be appreciated.

I have no pictures but it's basically flat black on lightweight board. Package tray reproductions are plentiful, you can get with or without speaker slits. There is also a jute pad underneath........Cuda & Challey are different.

It actually had a texture to it, that the repo's don't have.  ECS may have it.

Our original (that I damaged) didn't have any obvious texture that I saw, but the repro package tray's speaker "grill"  is smaller.

Found this statement, maybe Hardens knows which is correct for which models..
Package Tray
Package tray also called the rear speaker shelf is made from either smooth or textured board material for your application. Order with the original style speaker slots for a factory clean look.

If you arent looking for the "correct" replacement, you can  do what I did...

I went to Home Depot and bought some hardboard....used the old shelf as a template....then got some lightly textured leather-like vinyl from a fabric store and covered the shelf in that.

Turned out great.
