I have not done the breadbox removal on my '86 because (to be perfectly honest) not a single one of the available aftermarket options have given the passenger side of the dash a true "factory look".
Not saying anything about the quality of the panels.....just the look. Kind of hard for an aftermarket company to do anything with the area though and I understand that.


THIS, however, does the job perfect. I don't really know exactly what it is about it that I like so much.......but that is FANTASTIC!

I guess it is simply that the entire dash just blends together soooooo smoothly.

Replacing that was one of my first mods, the box made my passengers claustrophobic!



Not a tough job to do.

I might be the only person that bought a car with this mod and chose to reverse it.
