This is what my project looked like, I used lots of adhesive and prepared the surface As of now, it is working well and doesn't rattle. I am far happier with this dash than I was with
YES, I have a 2001 Dodge Ram 1500, and they fit well. Mine did not look as bad as some people's, but there were a few When I put these in place, they fit perfectly and would not seem to have been added on top of the original. My dash and bezel cracked due to age and have been replacing them since then. This product is excellent and I would recommend it to anyone with the same problem. Dodge should have a solution for the poorly made parts in their trucks, but they don't have one.
The width and depth of the container are about 10" and 5" respectively.

Selected User Reviews For DashSkin Molded Dash & Bezel Cover Kit Compatible with 99-01 Dodge Ram in Black
Those clips are the most important parts to have since the front bezel attaches to them. If you don't have those, you will have to attach the bezel with silicone. It's a 20 year old Dodge Ram, so I had to touch it up in a few areas. It is an excellent product that I would HIGHLY recommend for what it does. Sales staff were very helpful, promptly responding to inquiries. Thank you for your kind words. I have a little tip for you. There was a video on you tube that said people take off the original bezel and then glue the replacement to it, followed by clamping it down again. As I said, I did it. Is it something I would do I would never do that. Whenever you clamp it, you are stretching the plastic without knowing it, and when you go to attach it to the clips, you have a very difficult time. Just glue the old bezel up and then stick the new one on. Your new bezel should not be visible once it is glued into place. Apply some tape to those areas where it is needed. Make sure you don't make the same mistake as The fit is perfect, as I can attest! The best there is. I recommend it all the time. would like to show before and after pictures, but I am not able to do so.
It was easy to install and a huge improvement over the original broken up dash. Only thing I would recommend is that you cut out the area over the factory dash retaining fasteners along the base of the windshield, or else you won't be able to access the fasteners if you ever need to remove the dash for something like heater core replacement. The dash skin can be easily trimmed with a pocket knife and it still looks good and I can access the fasteners easily.
Nice! While it is a little flimsy, it's much better than the one I had on my 2001 Dodge Ram before. Take a look at the pictures.
My breath was taken away by the production quality of the dash and bezel. It looks extremely nice and I cannot be happier with the way it looks since I purchased it for $170 free of shipping. I was surprised that the installation was so easy and that you would not notice that the product is not original unless you were Although my dash had cracking, it was not as bad as most. I wanted to install it before it got much worse. You can make your dash look brand new for a very low cost. This is a quality product that is priced reasonably. The way it is made is not something I would change. Although it was not heavy, some found that working with it was quite challenging. It needs to be flexible so it doesn't crack. People I know in need of this product will be told about it.
This is my only complaint, but it's a minor one and I'll get to it right away. The following pros The product looks like a dash manufactured by a manufacturer. An individual can only tell if they examine it closely. You can tell if your dash has vent holes by looking closely at them, and if ones of them are broken, it will be obvious. In spite of this, 99% of people sitting in your truck do not look close enough. A very good fit has been achieved with this product. It immediately transforms into a brand new non-gross dash, when you lay it on top of the disgusting old one It's disgusting to see the You will find that there are some areas that, after you apply the adhesive, you must ensure they are seated well, but follow the directions and you will be fine. I found the directions to be informative and comprehensive. ANALYSIS The product is made in the I love God with all my heart. If you spend the extra ten dollars, you'll be assured of quality and you'll be supporting someone you love. It is a great place to live! A few cons For the dash, here is what we need to do Compared to the silicon adhesive, I thought it was a bit short on Fortunately, I had an extra tube left over from another project, which I could use to complete about 20% of what was left. As well as the adhesive for the bezel, which is boxed together and obviously smaller, you also get the same amount for the box. It's possible they thought the user would open the second tube to fit the bezel and give the correct amount of adhesive when I had some adhesive leftover after installing the bezel. This wasn't a problem for me because I had some on hand and didn't want to risk things going wrong. As a further note, while the instructions warn against using the attachable cone tip when applying the adhesive, I discovered that when I used the cone tip I could apply the adhesive more evenly, with less mess, and the adhesive would go further. You shouldn't break the instructions, as I am not telling you to do so. I just wanted to share my thoughts.
Others with a higher price tag but the same appearance have been purchased by me previously. I found the dash cover to be a good buy for its price and fit well, with the only trimming needed being to open up the holes for the screws on the top of the dash that I needed to insert to help with installation. Even though it was not quite tight enough around the A pillers, it served its purpose for the dash just fine. While my dashboard wasn't totally torn up, it was on the verge of being so. Different tales to tell when it came to the gauge's cover. This covers the stock part and saves the hassle of having to replace it when it doesn't fit well. It took some trimming of the old part to make it fit onto the stock Only one modification was necessary to the new cover I had to move a pin so that it could make room for the I think you're getting good value for your I found this hint extremely helpful. When you put the top cover on, allow the 2 nuts on the pass side air bag to come loose. Tighten up the nuts so the leading edge is snug under it after it has been glued down. The screws hold it down when done and make it look stock. As soon as you try to put it in, you'll be disappointed with the gauge bezel. The old one had to be reassembled to fit the new one. There is no way it can be fitted on the truck and to fit it right will take more work than it is worth. The Dorman direct fit part, NOT just the cover, was what I wound up ordering. Thank you for your understanding. As for the gauge cover, it's just not that well made, and when you fit it into the truck, it looks like a bucket of s***. I do still think the dashskin dash cover is worth buying though. You just need the dorman replacement bezel and it'll be fine.
At least $1000 is needed to install a new factory dash. It really looks great and this is the best way to go. Please make sure you perp cracked dash completely. Do not use more than half of the adhesive tube. The third and final point is. As much weight as possible should be applied to the pad to keep it in place. 3.
Tape the sides very firmly so that they do not come off. This is 5. After the installation is complete, it's going to smell like an adhesive off gassing really strong for a few days, When you follow the instructions, you will end up with a great looking product at a fraction of the price.
