Getting all my panels ready for the powder coater. Could someone please identify these for me so I can determine where they go?
Thank for the help!

Not sure about the small one, but the other two are a throwback to a donor build when you used the Fox body switches.

Thanks Rich. I am doing a non donor build. So I assume I can discard them?

I still use them to stiffen the dash.

yes, good for stiffening the dash: locate them out of the way of anything else. drill/tap/screw the short side to the 2x2 under the dash; the log end fits above the lower dash lip; drill/screw it to the lip. Unless, of course you are going to go with a length-wise under-dash filler panel.

The small piece is the filler for where the PS fuel tank strap goes through trunk floor. All the way at the back. You'll need that one.

Instead of using the two pieces to stiffen the dash get a piece of alumin. longer to stiffen the dash. I used about a 18" piece and put my heater knobs, 12v cig. outlet to
charge mobile phone and a couple more switches there that I wanted not on the dash.

Do you have a picture of this set up?

I did something similar to Mesa Mike. I made three panels. The centre one has a hinged opening in it for a small amp and has the cigarette lighter plug and stereo jack. Here is a picture. You can see the courtesy lights and the clock adjust button on the passenger side.
