Jimharvard I hate to burst your bubble since it is a good looking part, but I think your gonna have a problem with that dash bezel you just bought if you bought it for a 69 barracuda. Theres no hazard switch hole moulded in your new bezel above the headlight switch. You have in your pic a 1970 bezel. 1970 is where they moved the hazard switch to the steering column but still had a thumbwheel radio. This bezel is correct for 1970 340 duster.

I just purchased a 1969 barracuda non A/C non wood grained bezel with glovebox trim from www.MrMoparts.com. I bought the correct upper wood trim from DMT to jazz it up a bit. I had a few bad dealings with PG classic and no matter how inexpensive they are and great deals they offer, I wont bite again. Had to send too many things back with issues, and go back n forth. Not worth the headache to me honestly. I will pay a little more and get it from somewhere else.
Sorry man didnt mean to, just didn't want tou to get all assemblin and figure it out after you put it together. All 67, 68, 69 rallye dashes have the hazard switch in the dash. 70 up it went in the column. You must have got tunnel vision for that black paint. I will mask off the one coming for my sons car, and hit it with rustoleum flat black.
I got a 69 A/C rallye bezel I'll sell ya .
Jimharvard its www.MrMoparts.net it's all there. My bezels are being shipped
hey 4spdragtop...
no not for the M-Code, actually this is for my 69 383 4 sp car that has now taken priority over the M car. the 383 car is the one i've posted pics of installing the borgeson power steering box and the mopar mini-starter. i kind of "rediscovered" this car after i moved it over from my house to my other garage with the other three cars. i had forgotten how cool this car was and all the options it had on it - not to mention the fact that it is a 383, 4 speed with a 3:91 rear gear. i think it will be a fun car to drive this summer and it requires less work than the M car. i walk past the future 440 car every time i go into my garage. i am going to drop the 440 hp block off at NAPA and get started on getting the M car's motor built. then, hopefully - when i quit playing with the 383 car, i can devote all my time to the M car. i love being retired! i just sit around and think about what "car" to work on next. LOL! here's the dash that is being up-graded with the noted new bezel.

It was not listed for a 69. PG correctly listed it as 1970 only. Jim got tunnel vision on the black color on the bottom edge. I can def see how that can happen. I almost did that myself

Told ya they'd take care of you! And BTW.. it's not US that talk funny!UPDATE on my $600 "mistake."
i called PGClassic today. they're in Canada and "talk funny." i explained my mistake in getting the wrong year dash for my Barracuda and they said "no problem, just send your dash bezel back and we will exchange it for the right one you need." i asked if there would be any additional charges and they said "no."
so it looks like the only money i'm going to be out will be some shipping costs to Canada.
i'll post the final outcome of my "drama."

I'm proud of my strong Canadian accent!Naw, y'all northern folk talk funny lol. Us southern folk talk proper. At least y'all got the Calgary Stampede. Now that looks like some fun.
Kinda like the Rattlesnake roundup in nearby Sweetwater Tx. I been there once, had deep fried rattlesnake, got the tee shirt blah blah blah. It's a once a year tourist trap lol.I'm proud of my strong Canadian accent!
And I live aboot 2 hours south of Calgary, but I have never been to the Calgary Stampede.
I watch it on T.V., it's a lot cheaper and I can save the money for more car parts........
lol
