[@bobjohnson2920]

Awsome video! I've been watching for years. I came here to see what screws hold the center vent housing to the cluster trim. LMC doesn't show them anywhere in their diagrams and they didn't come with the new vent and housing. The guy who previously owned the truck died and I'm trying to finish his frame off resto. Beautiful truck, but what a nightmare. Buckets of bolts, nothing is labeled etc. But I want to thank your camera guy for the close up shot of the screws! I found them in one of the 5 buckets of bolts lol

[@gordonstroup882]

Thanks LMC Trucks, and thanks Kevin T. for showing us the "how too" on the dash.

[@roystoys3099]

I Unbolted The Steering Column (2 Bolts) To Give More Wiggle Room On The Gauge Bezel & I Replaced ALL The Dash Lights While It Was Out. Easy Life When You Do It Right The 1st Time!!

I'm working on my 1986 Silverado to get it back on the road, I got the engine running but need to work out the bugs on the carburetor. Still need to replace or rebuild a few more stuff on the truck. Dash replacement video was informative, I probably likely replace the dash later on. Keep loading up videos..

[@whiskeytangofoxtrot4523]

All those brand new parts LMC sells and he reinstalled that beautiful new dash and bezel with the 31 year old rusty screws! C'monnn, I'm sure LMC sells that screw kit, right?

[@carriekraemer8424]

This guy is the Bob Ross of cars

[@enermaxstephens1051]

I had one of these kinds of dashes, and it's a big thick blob of urethane. A good deal heavier than the stock one. It did not look factory. All fine and well for some people who don't mind, but I wanted it to look as close to stock as possible. So you really need a vinyl dash to accomplish this. Your factory dash can be recovered with new vinyl, and it fits easily and will not be difficult to reinstall.

[@markdaniele4539]

Just bought a 1979 C-10 Silverado so great video thanks.

on the head light switch knob removal, if you pull the knob out as if you were turning the head lights on then mash the button down the knob will pull the rest of the way out. don't forget to disconnect the battery or the head lights will be on and run the battery dead.

[@robertoleeva985]

I think that this is a great idea.. now that I can watch these videos, I'll be buying alot more stuff from LMC. THANK YOU

i ordered a LMC dashboard aka Dash pad. when putting on the bezel i had to cut the bezel from the upper left side. i did my research and i got the correct part, but dash pad is very bad built.

i have a problem with the upper right hand vent, the adaptor on the rear of the vent hits the dash cover making if impossible to remove without lifting the dash cover up, i recently had a radio installed ( due to my bad back ) and he broke off the fan switch. since he did such a poor job of it I had to fix his mess and ran into that vent problem.
