Illuminated 'CAMARO' or 'TRANS AM' dash kits. I don't know if I've ever seen these before. Does anybody here own one of these? I saw one picture of it in the appearance section. Let me see them if you have one.

Huh, I didn't see anything on the website saying that it flashes. From what I saw, you can even order it without illumination, and come up with something yourself.

I have one, maybe it was mine that you saw in the Appearance section. Here's the pics of it. It doesn't flash either, I think that was just so they could demonstrate the difference. I really like it and it's great solution for flush mounting the HU.

Thing about these is the face isn't made out of plastic, it is metal, so the cuts should look great. Also it's a nice flush design and can always leave the LED's out or put a switch on it.

That is a good question, I know I had a tight fit with the Metra kit I bought, the kit mounted the HU high in the space and these look like they mount the HU low.

If you guys are having trouble fit all of the wiring, try pulling out the HVAC controls, and moving the wires out of the way from behind. Makes it a little tougher to remove, but better than pushing against the wiring.

I just ordered one a few days ago. Mine will have SLP on the top, it'll illuminate red (with dash lights plus when I arm the alarm). On the engraved boarder of it, below the SLP, it'll have the "Firehawk #102" in the approiate lettering. I can't wait to get it!
Oh yeah, I did make 2 of these things myself for my old 93 Formula. Not quite as professional, but I thought it unique and I don't think anyone else has ever done it. It's lit by 10 blue LEDs...
Here's the install pics and I posted a few as well:
