Does anyone have the dimensions to the blank dash plate for the gauges on a 90-97?

I sell a blank dash plate that you can mount any gauge/data system to.

I bet you it's the same size as the glass.

Why do they call it a "Dash Board" ?

that still leaves the usage of "dash" in question. Turns out a less common alternative usage is:

to splash, often violently; bespatter (with water, mud, etc.): He recovered consciousness when they dashed water in his face.

I can see that the "board" that you put your feet on in a buggy or wagon would be what he's saying.
So as a horseless carriage started they put gauges?

The exhaust temp gauge for horses wasn't a very popular option.
