Is the center dash piece around the radio/heat control section the same on all 2002 proteges'? As in the 5, 3 and the sedan. I have a 2002 MP5 and need a new dash piece but i hear the dash section is different on the sedans. SO does the MP3 have the same dash as the sedan or the MP5? PLEASE HELP ME!!! Im having trouble finding a used MP5 dash piece and want to know if one of the others will fit.

The only differences will be in color/ trim. The P5, for example, has the satin metal finish and carbon look. Base sedans do not have this color variation; usually solid, molded-in color. My guess is that this trim piece is probably pretty cheap new, maybe around twenty or thirty bucks at most. Why not call your local dealer, and see what it runs new? Even if you don't decide to order it through the dealer, the parts guy will likely give you the part number of the piece you want (trim/ color choice), and it will make shopping online or elsewhere much easier. But why pay shipping, when the dealer cost is probably fairly competitive?

So in brief, yes they will all fit, but you may end up with a different color if you go with a protege5
