Dash Boards

I searched... Nothing quite answered my question...

I want a new dashboard. I don't really care if it's aftermarket or stock i just want a new one that doesn't rattle/shake/fall apart. Essentially the last guy that had my car decided to switch interiors and lost ALL the damn screws... It's driving me nuts. I just want a plain black dash.

Any one sell something like this? I'd hate to have to go to the junkyard for a damn dashboard.

Thanks
-Mike

i'm in the same boat

I have also been looking for a good dash replacement. The only option I have found is to get a custom dash made, and that is big $$$ that I'd rather spend elsewhere...

Just have to crank up the music so the creaks don't get through.

Suggestion

There is a wrecking yard in Portland, Oregon that specializes in Mazda. I don't have their phone number at home, but do at work and will suppliment this response tomorrow. If someone else knows who I'm talking about and has the number, please feel free to suppliment this thread.

Point is, Portland throuhg Seattle have more than their share of overcast. Thus, not as much sun to beat up the dash boards. Therefore, a decent chance a good one can be had from them including all the mounting screws.
