I am going to replace the dash on my 1970 Boss Trib. Does anyone have any thoughts on the best quality Pad? Also, I thought about just doing the heater core part, but maybe, since I am under there ... do the stereo, speakers and ac at the same time?

It was an AC car ...

Any thoughts on:

Pad quality?

Just doing heater part and waiting to buy AC later?

Stereo

Front speak should be now for sure though, right?

Thanks!

If you are going to do the heater core i would at least test the condenser for the air, you will find the heater /air box is not fun to work on .The good thing is the whole dash unbolts and comes out, unlike the earlier years. I haven't bought the pad for my 69 yet but i will probably go with the Ford replacement. Do the speaker while the pad is off the car ,it will be easier.
