That looks like a dash cap/cover rather than the pad. The overlays are for a driver quality truck and run about $180 as of last month. I have purchased them direct from Coverlay, Rock Auto and Summit. They are all the same. Average fit with some trimming but they look better than the 50 year old cracked, curled and crusted messes I pull out.
The ebay ones currently running between $60 and $90...are garbage. We threw one on a roller that a neighbor was selling. Fit and finish-awful. They are also thinner than the Coverlays.

I bought a Coverlay for my C30 and son's S10. Fast shipping and good choice of colors. Just got them this week so haven't had a chance to install yet. I paid $280 shipped for both with a coupon I got from a carshow. Quality looks good, hope the fit is as well.

Buy an extra tube of adhesive for both. It takes about a tube and a half to properly attach the cover. Permatex 80050 clear or 75151. I don't know why they are stingy with the stuff but you will need it.
