I hear some people are having luck fitting 1994-1996 Ram dashes in those.



Sorry. I highly doubt there is another dash that is just going to bolt right in as a perfect fit. You can either try to fix the one that is there, find one in great shape from a junkyard (aka the search for the holy grail), or use a later model dash and do a lot of modification to fit.

Thanks for the response. Your post is in direct line with what I am finding. I am getting good at tin bending. So I have a backup plan and it is fun working it out.

As for what fits, 94-01/02 are the same sheet metal. As for the dash itself 94-97 are the same and 98-01/02 are the same. The entire vehicle harness and electronics changed in 98 and 99. You'll have better luck finding a decent 98+ dash core, but you better be good with electrical with a little fab skill if you want to go down that road. The door panels also changed in 98, not sure how they match up to the dash, though.

Sadly, you aren’t much more likely to find a 98-01 dash in really good shape either. You can find ones in fair shape on eBay that usually need some repairs made to them. Usually starting around $700 plus a large shipping cost.
