Mikjone Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Hello, I have two dash pads, one with speaker screens, one without. Can someone tell me if one is specific to an SS or not? I understand they fit MC and Chevelle. Do they fit anything else? I also have a dash with the tach option ( 1970) Is that specific to SS or not? Thanks in advance Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leghome Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 Dash pad also fits ElCamino. And the tach was an option so not SS specific. I have never seen a dash pad without speaker screens. Lone center screen for AM radio Speaker screens on both ends stereo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam (Bones) Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 none of it is specific to an SS, SS's could have idiot lights, single center speaker all those things were options that could be ordered on a base monte or and SS take a look at this page http://www.firstgenmc.com/tech/ss454.shtml Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 it could be a radio delete those wouldn't need a speaker opening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stangeba Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 I thought the two speakers vs one speaker was all based on if the car had factory A/C or not. A/C = 2 speakers regardless of what radio, because of the center air outlet. AM/FM Stereo had two ft speakers with or with out A/C, like my 71 no A/C.

Bruce I agree with all of the replies above and the attached quote, from Bruce, gives a very good explination of a one vs. two speaker front speaker set-up. rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LostnFound Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 My fully documented 71 SS came from the factory with idiot lights, am radio, one speaker dash and no a/c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinniepooh Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Both of my 70s are AM the non A/C is single speaker and the A/C car has dual speakers front only. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monte70car Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Our 70 El Camino is a factory non-a/c car and it had a 6x9 in the dash so it had a Mono radio. Dad's old 70 SS Chevelle was a factory non-ac car and it had dual speakers up front and I want to say dual speakers in the back deck it did have the rear window defroster. Both of my Monte 70 and 72 were air cars with dual front 4x6" speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canuck Posted January 6, 2016 Share Posted January 6, 2016 Some non-ac cars could still get the stereo dash pad if the stereo option was ordered. My 71 is non-ac but has stereo 8-track with stereo front speakers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stangeba Posted January 7, 2016 Share Posted January 7, 2016 FYI, Today I e-mailed CARS INC about their dash offerings. To me it wasn't clear in their catalog. Here is their reply: Bruce, Yes. The 1970-2 Monte Carlo dash pads are available, all three years,both center and side speakers. Same as 1970-2 Chevelle's Have a black, center speaker dash pad in stock, $269.96 or can order the side speaker dash pad. Please advise.

Jared Richey Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Be careful on these reproduction dash pads, some the grain is not right. From my understanding the legendary one is correct grain like original. Maybe someone has bought one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
