Good luck finding a decent green pad....that was a pretty rare color. You shouldn't have any problems finding a black pad that you could dye. I'd check the online store, Mac's or Dennis Carpenters.

As the other posts indicate, green is hard to find. If I were you, I'd remove your current dash pad and expose the nifty metal dash underneath. I would check eBay religiously and you might find the arm rests. I have a photo of my exposed dash in my gallery if you want to see what it would look like. Good luck.

I got a black one and ordered some paint that is used to paint vinyl from Eastwood in a color that matched close enough. Not sure if they have a green or not. You can check their web site.

I need green too. Got a quote from JustDashes.com for $450. Believe they'll do your armrest as well.

"Jor" saw your dash on the gallery...... NICE. I think I'll do the same. I also have a green dash but it's very cracked in the middle.
Was it too hard to remove? Any suggestions?
Thanks! : )

txwing,
Actually, the old dash came off pretty easily. There are a number of nuts under the dash that have to be removed and it pops right off. Send me an email or PM and I will send you photos of the removal process.

The bare dash looks great in the picture, but I already have a new padded dash I bought with the group buy on this site a couple of years ago. Haven't installed yet. The advantage of putting the padded dash on is there is some protection when your noggin comes a knocking! Assuming that ever occurs--hopefully not.
