Eriksf250 Posted May 8, 2020 Share Posted May 8, 2020 Been working on fabricating a radio delete panel for my brother in law's 85 rd since it already has a radio in the ceiling and I don't like that huge hole in the dash. I have it primed and test fitted, gonna paint it soon and put "mack" in black letters on it. Should definitely clean up the look of the dash a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eriksf250 Posted May 8, 2020 Author Share Posted May 8, 2020 Thank you. I want to eventually put 2 more gauges in place of the gauge hole covers, I'm thinking a factory manifold pressure gauge and maybe transmission temperature. I'm still doing some research to see all the available gauge types on all r series (r, rd, rw, dm, etc.) variants and choose from there. I wish I could get a factory woodgrain dash panel blank and cut out as many holes for gauges I want and fill it up with gauges like an RW but more lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeH Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 How come you didn't make delete panels for the rest of us? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ditchdiggerjcf Posted May 9, 2020 Share Posted May 9, 2020 I would stick my foot in a driver's ass if I caught that idiot cutting holes in my dash. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
