You mean just to replace ONE of the center vents? I'm picturing a Camaro...

Im in for sure for 1 of the 2 guage pieces. Im going to post the link on my local forum and im sure I will have at least 3-5 more buyers by the end of the weekend. maybe we can work something out on a price if we buy more than a few and have them shipped together, I will be in touch with you no later than end of the weekend.

There isn't a lot of room left for the cover to close even with these in place.

However, I'd like something to fit in the center console for additional switches

1/4" is thick but we could take the ash tray out like stated above Or even get a thinner piece of ABS... Whatever it takes but im sure a lot of people would be interested in an Ash Tray switch panel...

I'd like to see a 6 spd shift plate/plaque that has Z28 or SS on it. It would fit on the ash tray cover. The oem one in front of the shifter is too small.

Yeah just right above where the asr switch is above the radio...maybe replace one of the vents with an optional 1, 2, or 3 gauges if you replaced both vents.

If anyone trolls this thread with anything aside from ideas gets a vacation. Spam is a banable offense.

What about a switch panel for the earlier Lt1's? I understand you don't love us, but still at least keep us in the loop!

I would do ANYTHING (not really) for a rear diffuser kit (for Formulas too).

j/k.

But seriously, switch panel blockoffs similar to 1LE style.
Factory-style battery cover for the engine compartment (unless heat is an issue there)?
Gauge pod panel where the current A/C controls are and/or half-DIN gauge pod area for people running with no radios.

If you can put all the heater/Ac controls in a panel that will fit in that ashtray spot, I'd probably buy it. I really need that. Let me know

Can you do contoured parts, like say something to replace the door window switch panel? I hate those damn buttons and want to replace the with a different kind.
