Factory GM Dash Parts

Restore Your Ride With Genuine GM Dash Parts

The dash serves as the primary structural and aesthetic command center of your vehicle's interior, housing vital electronics, climate controls, and crucial safety equipment. Prolonged exposure to extreme sunlight can degrade inferior plastics, leading to unsightly cracks and faded finishes.

How to Replace Dash Trim Components

Whether you own a GMC Sierra 1500 or another model, use these guidelines for a safe installation:

1. Disconnect The Battery

Always disconnect the negative terminal to prevent accidental airbag deployment or electrical shorts.

2. Remove Surrounding Bezels

Use non-marring plastic trim tools to gently pry away the decorative trim rings.

3. Extract Securing Fasteners

Locate and remove the hidden Torx or Phillips screws anchoring the primary dashboard panel to the metal subframe.

4. Disconnect Wiring Harnesses

Carefully unplug all electrical connectors for the climate controls, infotainment screen, and hazard light switch.

5. Install The New Panel

Position the genuine replacement, reconnect all wiring, secure the fasteners tightly, and firmly snap the bezels into place.
