Small dash insert, picture of underneath - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

Does anyone have a picture of the actual dashboard underneath the small dash insert to the left of the steering wheel? I know it has holes for the clips to go in, does it have any other holes back there?? Looking to run wire through. Thanks in advance.

I would love to go out and look myself but my 5 month old is stopping me from doing so lol

Nope, but you can drill one.

Thanks for the pic and info. I figured as much. I might one clip off the dash insert and use an existing hole

Edit: nevermind can't do that I didn't realize that there was only 2 clips on that piece. Would have to be drilled. However maybe you can tell me, that abl tube, did you have to drill that hole? Or is the hole already there??

There should be other holes if you have a '10-12.

He had to drill that hole.

Thank you. I have to take a look to see what I have to work with. I would like to avoid drilling any holes if possible.

sjmautoprod · 10-13-2014, 11:38 AM

Yup. It's possible that the extra holes were removed sometime in '12, like some other changes.

45thCamaro · 10-13-2014, 12:32 PM

I have to check that when I get a chance. I will report back. Thank you sjmautoprod

In the 2010-11 there are more holes there, we ran extra LED's so there is more lights.

Thank you. Unfortunately my car does not have the extra holes. Furthermore, my idea for running a wire back there will not work for what I wanted to do with it. I was planning on mounting the new throttle controller in that area. I was going to recess the remote into that dash insert and run the wire behind it. However do to the lack of space and bad viewing angle that it would be I decided to look for another location.

I figured yours would be similar to mine since we both have 45ths.
Mine was built Feb 2012 so in the 2nd half of the Model year run.

Yeah. Mine was built in December of 11. I have to see if I like where I put this remote. Or I will have to move it again.
