What years and models of Kenworth T800 are these dash trim pieces compatible with?
Most of our Kenworth T800 dash trim pieces are designed to fit models from 1987 through 2010. However, there were minor dashboard changes in 1995 and 2005 that affect fitment. Pre-1995 models have different mounting hole patterns than 1995-2004 models, and 2005+ models introduced updated gauge cluster designs. Always check the specific product description for exact year compatibility, or contact our support team with your VIN for verification.
Are these dash trim pieces made from real chrome or chrome-plated plastic?
Our Kenworth T800 dash trim selection includes both options. Premium pieces feature triple-chrome plated ABS plastic that provides excellent durability and mirror-like finish at a fraction of the weight of metal chrome. We also carry stainless steel trim pieces for maximum longevity. Each product listing clearly specifies the material type. Chrome-plated ABS typically lasts 5-7 years with proper care, while stainless steel options can last the lifetime of your truck.
How difficult is it to install dash trim, and what tools do I need?
Installation difficulty varies by piece, but most dash trim can be installed in 30-60 minutes with basic hand tools. You'll typically need a trim removal tool or plastic wedge, Phillips and flathead screwdrivers, and sometimes a 7mm or 8mm socket. Gauge bezels and switch plates usually snap into place or use existing mounting screws. Full dash panels may require removing the steering column shroud and gauge cluster. We recommend having a second person help with larger pieces to avoid scratching.
Will aftermarket dash trim match my existing interior or look different?
Quality aftermarket trim is designed to match OEM specifications for finish and appearance. However, mixing old and new chrome pieces can show slight color differences due to age and wear on original parts. For the most uniform look, we recommend replacing trim pieces in complete sets. Our trim is available in chrome, brushed aluminum, and painted finishes to match various T800 interior packages. Wood grain options are also available for trucks with the luxury interior package.
Do I need to remove my entire dashboard to replace trim pieces?
No, most individual trim pieces can be replaced without full dashboard removal. Gauge bezels, air vent surrounds, and switch plates typically pop out from the front after removing a few screws. Radio bezels and center console trim may require removing surrounding panels first. Only full dash face replacements or extensive trim work requires dashboard removal. Each product includes specific installation instructions, and our tech support can provide guidance for your particular trim piece.
