That is the 73-1/2 and later US molded plastic dash. The defroster grills on the 71-72 dash are entirely different so what that means is that parts book is not completely comprehensive.
That single pod dash I think is also for the US cars which end in '74. The Euro cars dash looks very similar but is fiberglass and not plastic.
There is a thickness difference between the two which effects the way the grills lock together.
Those grills are definitely two pieces but I'd have to have both types here, which I do not, and then compare them as to what interchanges, if anything?
I think the "hose adapters" which go internally are the same though? The left one is 45 degrees, the right one 90 degrees and the center doesn't use one and locks directly into a metal tower extension of the blower box.
The blower box varies according to the dash used.
I was just mentioning that there was two types, that's all. I don't have any extras or any for sale.
You have to go through all of the Pantera parts vendors until you find a set.
I don't have any pictures of the GT5 cars handy. What do they use?
I think I remember Steve Wilkinson saying the "square" ones were obsolete and he could give me a complete matching set of his replacements, which is what I did. I have a fiberglass single pod dash that I got from Bob Byers.
Here is a picture of an 84 GT5 for sale on ebay now. It seems to have the square ones?
Maybe I'm just missing a piece to the assembly? Strange. What I have does fit together without needing another part but that possibility has occurred to me, yes?
