Today I cracked part of my dash. It was brittle due to years of sun expose, and I will need to order a replacement. I looked in my Classic Industries catalog and around online, but cannot find the name of this piece to search for a replacement. It's the top plastic part of the dash that covers the speakers and has the defroster vents in it. I included a picture pointing to the piece I'm talking about. Any help would be appreciated!

Not sure on an exact name. I'm not aware of anyone repopping that part but I could be wrong. Might have to find one in a wrecker and paint to match. Perhaps someone paring out a Regal or having Regal parts may be able to help. I had a nice one in my hands from a wrecked Regal in a wrecker here early this year and decided to leave it behind...

Don't throw out the pieces in case you replace the front speakers one day! Might be nice to have a nice replacement and a crappy one just in case.
I need to cut holes in mine so it'll fit, and it's all cracked and faded anyway. The plan is to adhere it back together, paint it flat black, and maybe sticker-bomb it with all of my unused car part stickers because I'm a silly person.
Also be careful if you wash the stock one. The dry old sun-beaten paint started coming off mine when I washed it. Now it's gray and green from the plastic.

upper dash speaker bezel... they do make re-pops, but are a little pricey... pricing has gone down over the last year or two, from the different sources I'd seen...

Thanks a lot for the answer and link! :doh:I can't believe how expensive they are! I'll glue the thing back together and re-install it before I spend $200 on something like this lol at least for the time being. Maybe when the car is in nicer shape I'll splurge on a replacement
