Just wondering if it can be done. Say replace the base molded dash pads with stitched ones like in the premiums. Looking at ford parts its unclear if those are separate or its one giant piece that is made into the entire dash.

Unfortunately that is part of the dash so you would have to replace the entire dash to get the OEM premium stitching. That said, an upholstery shop might be able to make leather covers that can be installed over the base dash effectively giving you the same look.

It's one Huge assembly.
You would need to remove almost everything to the firewall to swap it out.

Was afraid that was the case, thanks for the info before I try and poke around at things. Also looks like trying to cover it and getting a factory look would be hard as well with the small gaps that you have to deal with. I know someone in upholstery and just tossing around ideas. I remember someone just gluing on material and it looked hideous.
