Used dash pad clip for any 1969-70 Mercury Cougar or Ford Mustang. This clip attaches to the steel dash assembly. The lower portion of the padded dashes just above the glove box door and steering column is where they attach. We have seen anywhere from 2-4 or zero of these clips installed on 1969-70 Cougars. According to Bill Q. these clips prevent the sharp dash pad screws from coming into contact with wiring or wiring harnesses. His go-around is to only use blunt screws (without a point) for...

This actually is a pretty impressive part once installed if your expectations are not overly high. It fits snug (very tight) over your existing cracked dash and you affix it by putting silicone around the perimeter. Once in place the obvious indicators of it not being original are the lack of simulated stitching on the leading edge and the larger perforations for the center speaker. The good thing about this unit is that your dash pad can have large chunks missing and it still will work! You...

This actually is a pretty impressive part once installed. It fits snug (very tight) over your existing cracked dash and you affix it by putting silicone around the perimeter. Unlike the 67-70 there is no stitched edge or speaker holes in the 71-3 so it is a perfect candidate for this cover. The good thing about this unit is that your dash pad can have large chunks missing and it still will work! You can install this without removing the dash and it is very hard to detect once in place. Made of...

CURRENT DASHES IN STOCK ARE BLUE AND BLACK Good used original upper dash pad. The pad shown is for a 1968 but will work a 1967. The difference is the 68 has a relief cut for the aluminum VIN tag located on the passenger side and 67 did not.

Of the three covers used on the 67-73 Cougars we find this one the most difficult to use. Will Not Work On Badly Distorted Dash Pads. The problem is not with the product but rather the design of the original dash pad. Unlike the 69-73 pads the 67-68 pads are prone to warping (sagging) badly. Since this glue on shell is rather rigid you have to have a mostly straight pad to work with. Large cracks are no problem even if your pad is curling at the cracks, just break off the portions of your...

Knee pad as found on select 1968 Mercury Cougars. This grade A version will not be separating from the metal strip.

This is for the guy that is building a show car and is striving for perfection and wants to do nothing but freshen it up with a coat of SEM Flexible Coating.

These used dash pads are still pliable but will need paint to look fresh, we recommend SEM flexible coating, Landau black.

This grade B dash pad will have multiple cracks and will only be usable as a core to adhere our dash repair shell to. Get the shell here.

From the view as seen when sitting inside the car this pad might look decent but when you look at the top side it have cracks, especially at the defroster vents, small blisters and the pad will feel hard on top. This pad will not look perfect even after it has been painted with two coats of SEM vinyl paint as shown here. This pad is not intended for a restored car but is more of a "better than nothing" option. Pictures shown are samples only, not the actual pad you will receive.
