Never tried the Cheyenne pad, but I did the Dashes Direct one in my truck. It was a huge pain to install - probably had it in/out at least 15 times to trim areas. Even after trimming I had issues with the driver side of the pad wanting to flare way out by the instrument cluster, i ran a big screw through the pad through the sheet metal under it to hold it in place.

I hoped I would never have to remove it again, because I dread trying to put it back on again. The look isn't that bad to me - its not smooth liked the original but its not horrible either.
