Frequently Asked Questions About Kenworth T680 Dash Accessories

Will these dash accessories fit my specific T680 model year?

Most of our T680 dash accessories are designed to fit model years 2013 through current production. However, Kenworth made minor dashboard updates in 2017 and again in 2021. Always check the product description for specific year compatibility, or contact our support team with your VIN for verification. Pay special attention if you have a T680 Advantage or Next Gen model, as some accessories may have different mounting points.

What tools do I need to install these dash accessories, and how difficult is the installation?

Most dash accessories require basic hand tools including Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, trim removal tools, and occasionally a 7mm or 8mm socket. Installation typically takes 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on the accessory. Dashboard gauge pods and switch panels usually involve removing existing trim pieces first. We recommend having plastic trim tools to avoid scratching your interior. Many drivers successfully complete installation themselves, though some prefer professional installation for items requiring electrical connections.

Are these accessories made from OEM-quality materials that will last?

Our T680 dash accessories are manufactured from high-grade ABS plastic or aluminum, matching or exceeding OEM specifications. The plastic accessories feature UV-resistant coating to prevent fading and cracking from sun exposure. Chrome and painted finishes use automotive-grade materials designed to withstand temperature extremes from -40F to 185F typically found in truck cabs. Look for products marked as "OEM replacement" for exact factory match quality.

What finish options are available to match my T680 interior?

We stock dash accessories in the most common T680 interior finishes: Splendor Tan, Slate Gray, and Black. Chrome accents and wood grain options are available for select items. If you have the Premium or Diamond interior packages, note that some accessories come in specific textured finishes to match. Check your door panel or existing dash trim color code (usually found on a sticker inside the glove box) to ensure proper color matching.

Do these accessories interfere with any factory features or warranty?

Properly installed dash accessories should not interfere with airbag deployment, HVAC operation, or any safety systems. Most bolt-on accessories use existing mounting points and do not require drilling or permanent modifications. However, accessories that require cutting or drilling may affect warranty coverage for that specific area. Always maintain factory warning labels visible and ensure any electrical accessories are properly fused. We recommend reviewing your warranty terms or consulting your dealer for modifications requiring permanent alterations.
