WTB - Underdash cardboard piece

[Napes]

This is for a '76 ('75s are the same, and maybe older as well). I need the piece that goes between the firewall and the glove box. It's approx. 12½" x 3½" with a 60º +/- bend, about a ½" wide, along one side. Needs to be in good, or better, condition.

Thanks,

what does the one on the driver's side look like? mine is missing, and my carpet is always sagging down because of it.

i have that one also. its got a little cutout for the hood release lever. i gotta dig it out for a pic though

[golf73]

so is it the same approx size as pass. side but with the cutout? i'm going to have to look in the box of parts i got with the car, i might have it. it's hard to figure out where all those panels go without some under dash pics.

[BLUNT]

roughly the same size yes

Steve, that one in your pic is similiar, but not the same. The one I'm after has a tab extension on the end toward the ouside of the car. It goes under the most outboard piece by the glove box. There is only one screw hole. It is shared with the screw on the most outboard piece, that then goes thru both cardboard pieces. It might be P/N 51 45 1 825 862 in the Real OEM diagram 51/76, but that looks a little different also. Both my ' 75 and my ' 76 have A/C and the hoses come thru the firewall at that point, so, I guess it's possible the Dealers were furnished a slightly different trim piece to use when they installed the A/C systems.

PS: In the RealOEM diagram it's item #10, but the line in the diagram does not appear to go all the way up to the part, but it's the one with the foam backing (sorta on top).
