Dash Pad Replacement

[71droptop]

Greetings to my E body brothers. Need to replace my dash pad. Not sure which way to go.
71 Challenger 1 spkr. A/C Black Dash
Send out original to Just Dashes. ( Live in New York-up state area ) Steel core-V.G condition
or
Order New from Year One ?

I believe that YearOne is still selling dashes made with an ABS plastic core. Skip that and bite the bullet. Just Dashes is probably the most well known, and experienced company that restores Dash pads. They are expensive, but the old adage that " the quality is remembered long after the price is forgotten" applies here. There are other people that sell steel cored dashes. But most of these are actually made by someone else and fit quality seems to be hit and miss. Do your research but I have found that most people who try to go more economically, read "Cheaper" end up wishing that they had gone with Just Dashes instead.

Metro makes a great dash pad. I got mine through Roseville mopars out of Detroit.
I'm very happy with mine. Great texture, great color.

Ultimate Rides makes Roseville pads.

Does Ultimate Rides hold the Metro name sake? Or are they the first and main distributors of the metro parts?
