    Search "Rodeo Dash" on eBay. I got the main dash from eBay (with the fuzzy hole switch plate and all Rodeo switches for $55. Pricey for just the dash, but good deal with the bezel and switches, I thought. I got the lower (ashtray area) dash bit from a local yard, no upper dash or pigtails (whole dash harness gone), available from that Rodeo.

    I, too, did not want to paint the factory dash. It's hermetically sealed in the attic. I have since bought a new Trooper dash harness to get a few switch pigtails, to include one Fog Light pigtail.

    you should also checkout the classifieds at http://forum.planetisuzoo.com/

    just yesterday I found a guy parting out his SUV and I did a straight up trade of my fuzzy hole piece for the 3 switch plate with an OEM tailgate open button, a fog light button and a blank complete with pigtails for a clean wiring install.

    sure beats paying $45 just for that tailgate button from an OE parts dealer.

    You need to visit you local do it your self junk yard. In SLC we have “Pick and pull” and “Tare A part” there like Disney land for me. I’ve past up dozens of good $90 4L30E’s in totaled Isuzu’s and Hondas. The odd thing is I never see a rusted out Isuzu.
