I'll need a blue one but I'm far off from that effort. I was planning on coughing up the 1000+ and sending to Just Dashes, when the time comes.

I need one or two. Probably need a blue one for sure. I'll have to look, I think I have two cores. What is the price range?

Kurt , I don,t remember the exact price but i thought is was in the 500.00 range . I think colors other than black were 25.00 additional . I was looking for the original post on the dash pad group purchase but ill have to do some more looking , can't find it right now .
I think it was ( Dpp ) dash pad pros .
I'll probably be giving them a call soon .

I regret having to make this post but the company that made our dash pads has become unreliable. I'm not even certain what name they are going under now as they have changed their name multiple times. They are based out of El Paso, TX.
 In November of 2022 I ordered some dash pads form them. I did receive a '66 and '67 pad that was ordered but as of this post have still not received the '65 pads or a refund for the '65s.

 Again, I hesitate to make this announcement, but I feel compelled to say, "Buyer Beware".

Loren,
I had the same problem almost 5 years ago. We spoke about this in PM's. I kept calling them every week wanting to know what is the hold up. They finally sent my dash pad. Stay on there ass if possible.

 Sadly, no. It was very involved process having a mold made for the process to make these pads.
