        I was way luckier enough to find one in this condition at a junkyard. Pulled it and payed 12 bucks for it. 8)

          I am not sure what you mean?
          Both are out of airbag cars. Why should it matter though?

            I think he is referring to the new ones, made of a different material with a slightly different grain (think modern BMW) vs crack free originals.

            You can still buy a brand new dash, and while the fit is perfect, the materials have been updated, and are allegedly more durable and crack/fade resistant.

              I was probably luckier since my car came with a perfect dash...;)

                I'm pretty sure there is a difference between airbag models and non air bag models. Just had my air bag model swapped and the dash that was put in has a couple different mounting points on the drivers side. It's still 95% the same and a new dash really makes the biggest difference. Do it people, great seller here!

                  Same dash...the airbag models just have an extra bracket that is riveted on the side. I transferred that bracket from a late dash to an early dash replacement in like 5 minutes.

                      Yup, exactly! There is a user here that has done two swaps for me and he is great!

                          Yes I was referring to that. Going to assume they are original based on the responses.
