extra holes on bottom of dash - are they meant for anything in particular? what are the rectangular holes for? the rubber bumpers in the glove box & ash tray - are they available? Other questions - is this a wiring chase or perhaps for a AC or heater hose? How does the glove box knob come off? Anyone need an original speaker what does this attach too - firewall?? Going to start the body work on the dash & get it painted - was satin black a standard dash color ? I have black panels & white bucket seats, probably use a white/off white headliner but also wondered about stock headliner colors too, anyone know? Who makes aftermarket headliners? Yeah I know,lots of questions - thanks for the help, much appreciated! evan

Heres a pic showing the harness channel and the radio brace. 2 items you asked about. Holes under the dash. On the drivers side is 3 set of 2 angled holes. Those are for the accessory switches. Rear defrost, A/G hood, ect. Under the ash tray are two pairs of holes for the vent cables. Your's looks a little messed up.

Also for the switches.
Actually, I think the rectangular holes are for the light from the bulbs on the underdash switches (A/G, rear defrost, etc.) to shine on the switch bezels/labels/knobs.

hey thanks guys,a pic's worth a 1000 words sometimes. Didin't even dawn on me that that could be a radio bracket! Anybody got pic's of the switches & lights your talking about for under the dash?
I don't, but perhaps 72RoadRunnerGTX may chime in - he's got pictures of durn near everything on his...

Anyone have any idea's on the other stuff - headliner, dash colors, etc...?
Mine's all one color (dark green), so can't say other than dash should probably be black if the interior is black and white. Others here have two-tone interiors, so they may chime in...

Oh yeah, am I dreaming to want a tic-toc tach instead of my clock?
Thx!
71-74 clock/tach hole only can do a clock OR a tach. I don't think tic-toc-tach was available for our cars - think that was 68-70 only. Unless aftermarket has come up with something.

why did some dashes have the AC/heat vent on the drivers side & some not. 72 RR's has the vent & I'm planning on running an AC setup, probably stock as I have the AC heater box but have considered the aftermarket ones that retro in as well.
At least know I know I cant have the tic - toc, I'll switch to a tach. I presume I can buy a repop one ?
Thx!

Another question if I can hop on. Does anyone know the location of the screws to take the dash pad off?

Evan, Do you have the key for the lock? The correct procedure to remove the lock cylinder requires having the key and the latch in the lock position, key removed. You should then see a spring loaded tang through the small square hole in the bottom of the hatch housing. Depress the tang with a small tool of some kind and insert the key; lock cylinder should then slide out. Without the key there is another small square hole 90 degrees away, under one of the mounting tabs and difficult to get to with the latch in the door, would have to depress the retaining tab and the tumblers one at a time to get the cylinder out intact. Check your pm, talk soon

I agree with the other Doug Great minds think alike. Sometimes they will stick, get your finger nails behind the thumb turn & pull when you push in the retainer.+ Here is one of my favorite tools for retainers.
