Has anyone smoothed out there dash rather than replace the dash pad? On my new cab the dash pad is shot and was thinking of filling in the holes to have a nice smooth look and paint the dash all one colour. Any pics?

Has anyone seen a smoothed out dash in a truck?

There are some pictures in this thread. Look at pages 3,7,11, & 13. It looks like he is not using the pad though.

Thats a pretty sweet build! It does look like he might eventually be using a dsah pad. Maybe i'll PM him and see. Thanks for the link though!

Edit.....Thanks Tigga Did not see that......Scott i am using all the stock mounting point although the (pad) its self will be shaped different......Hope this helps....And if you need any tips Just ask....................Tony As far as welding the holes for the pad ....That would be fairly easy......just a good welder and a clean piece of an alloy or brass for a backer......

This build i just started to follow...WOW! You sure are doing some awesome work on that truck! :metal:
Can someone fill in the slots that are under the pad with photoshop so i can see what it would look like with no pad at all?

Here is a quick one I did in MS Paint...just to give you an idea.
