Woodgrain sticker?

Does anyone make a replacement woodgrain stickers for the 80-86 Fords? Mines peeling off.

Also what about replacement dash's? Mines cracked... wouldn't mind having a new one cheap.

Thanks

Try a vinyl shop. You can have any kind of sticker made. Your hardest part will be finding the right woodgrain design.

Woodgrain Stickers? Could you be more specific?

As for the Dash pad. Charcoal Grey is the only color still avaliable from Ford. It will cost you around $500.

Aftermarket companies have made dash pad covers, but they do not look stock in apearance to me.

I think Dennis Carpenter might have some NOS avaliable.

Other than that a wrecking yard and good luck is your best bet.

1980-1983 F-100 / 1980-1986 F-150, F-250, F-350, Bronco / 1980-1999 F-600/F-900 are swappable on dash pads.

It shouldn't really matter if it's Rosewood or Burlwood, cause he's gonna have to find the design himself on the net anyway, unless the people at the vinyl shop of his choice are nice enough...

My question was that there are no woodgrain stickers.

If it's peeling off, then the whole part has to be replaced. The woodgrain only came with the part. Which part, instrument cluster, door panel, horn pad? etc...

To fix it with vinyl is a good idea,but finding a match would be difficult.

I gotcha. He probably figures since it peels off, it's a sticker of some sort. My radio bezel is peeling in a few places, and the pieces you can pull off are almost clear and feel like plastic wrap. It would be very hard to get something like what the factory put on. His best bet is probably getting a vinyl sticker made because it's hard to find a truck that doesn't have peeling/faded decals.

That's basically what I mean. It's peeling off around the instrument cluster like a sticker.

If it needs to be custom made then i'll just forget it. It's more of a "want" than a need.

As for the dash I'd rather not pay $500 My interior is blue anyway.

Thanks for the help guys.

If you look hard enough you'll eventually find a new dash pad in a junk yard or on ebay.

Are you sure these are still available? Do you know what the part number is?

Well, they were still avaliable last time I checked six months ago.

Charcoal Dash Pad: E4TZ-1004282-B0P

Charcoal was the only color left.

Will fit:

1980-1983: F-100
1980-1986: F-150/F-350 and U-150 (bronco)
1980-1999: F-600/F-900

Is there anyone out there that sells the plastic face of the dash that the radio and instrument bezels fit into?

If you are talking the whole dash assembly, then the only one is Ford. And that's obsolete as well I bet.
