I've replaced my entire dash, found one at the junk yard that had all the mounting tabs intact ($60). This job is really not as difficult as some people think, it is somewhat time consuming. I spent about an hour and a half at the junk yard removing it with a friend. Then it took us about hour to remove the old one and about two hours to install the replacement. Some people have just removed their dash and repair the broken tabs ( there are four of them at the firewall ) using epoxy, fiberglass, etc. Good luck.
