92-97 dash pad

I got a crack in my 97 F250s dash pad. Interior is that royal blue color, code "6V" from what I recall. Anyways, I can't really find that pad that runs from the radio to the passengers door in that blue color. But I found these covers on Jeffs Bronco Grave Yard.

Wanted to know if I should get the light blue or dark blue for a code "V" interior.

1992-97 Dash pad cover-Dark Blue

1992-97 Dash pad cover-Light Blue

Doesn't help they don't really have pictures, let alone info on what trim code it goes with.

Neither. Keep an eye on ebay, craigs list and the like. Or go to a junk yard for a blue dash pad.

Those overlays are junk

Just picked up one on ebay for $100 out of a 96 truck so I'm pretty sure the color will be right.

Now I need to figure out how to remove the old one and put this one I bought on...

Take the radio and glove box out to get to them I'm guessing?

Yes, take out the glove box and the radio to get to them. I quarter inch drive ratchet is your friend here. There are seven nuts if I remember correctly. The four around the radio are the biggest pain. I have the blue interior as well and the 92-94 are a lighter shade. I have had a hard time finding the darker one for my 95 on ebay or at the jy.

Yea, I guess I got lucky. I found 5 or 6 pads from like 92 and 93 trucks, but I found that one from a 96 and it looked darker in pictures than all the others so I'm gonna take a guess it's the right color... Hope so atleast you know? haha.

I have a really small snapon ratchet at work and an even smaller matco offset screwdriver with a 1/4 drive adapter. One of those will work I guess... I know how to get the radios out of these trucks (aftermarket head unit, super easy)... But I've never taken the glove box out. I'm always afraid to work on the interiors of these trucks because the plastic is so crappy.

Just open the glove box, and press the 2 tabs at the bottom.

It'll pop up a bit, then slide it up and straight out. Simple as that.

Or if you can get the color in a spray can you could try the repair route. A fella over at Fullsizebronco.com did his and I think it came out great:

Cracked Dashboard Fix - FSB Forums

At least you can give it a try, if it does not work you can always buy the replacement...
