Like other parts '69 service dash pads do not exactly match the OE pad. The most noticeable difference is a smooth leading edge; OE pads have a beaded edge. GM service parts are often manufactured by other suppliers.

Since this one seems to have the bald spot in the center, not that noticeable in the poor photos, it probably is NOS.

Looks NOS to me. I have a real old NOS A/c pad that was made before the bald spot started showing up in the dash pads.

Was the bald spot in both regular and A/C dash pads?
