Thunder Racing has aluminum ones. Or you could switch a whole T/A panel in. Other than that I'm sure you could get anything to fit

The aftermarket support for 4th gen FBody interior pieces is limited unless you come up with an idea yourself that will work. I think I heard that 96-98 Grand Am ***** will fit, but I don't think that's any better than stock. I do like the MBA ones & after seeing them in a few cars I think they are about the only good option but $30 is steep for one **** when to do it right you need 4.

what if you filled in the rear cutout with bondo or whatever and then you mimicked the holes of our cars and put them on could anybody get that to work thatwould leave the possibilities almost endless. just throwing out ideas

Think everyone has given up on this one, though in my searching someone said that the truck ***** would work. Dunno if he meant S10/Silverado/Colorado/Tahoe or what. I have no access to anything except my wife's passat at the moment, and those definitely don't work.

I think the ***** from the Silverado and S10 are the same. I might go pull a **** off of my s10 and try them out.

The S10 ***** are clocked the same but the mounting point is flush on the S10 ***** and has a shaft on the Camaro ***** which slides into the actual control panel. Kinda hard to explain so I'll post a pic shortly.

I am not sure how common MBA ***** are...I dont think at all the shows I have been to I have ever seen (or remember seeing) another car with them. I bought a set of blue ones off the classifieds for $70 (all 4) and then spent about 12 hours sanding and polishing them.

Bondo isnt going to be strong enough to take the stress of when you turn the *****, in fact fiberglass may not either and even if it did, were talking about a tiny hole here.

The only thing that might work is to create some kind of adapter, although that might only work for a flush mount style ****... Basically have a fitting with the female end machined to the stock selector shaft, and the male side machined to fit the position of the new ****.
