I know someone that could make you one for the center section ahead of your gear shift where your cassettes go.

You have to drill 4 tiny screw holes to mount it or just glue it in.

He can paint it as well.

Can fit 4 or 8 switches of your choice.

Style and quantity of switches affects price.

Crappy pic of the one we made below the deck and ahead of the gear shift is below...

The red switches light up at night when the headlights come on.

Email me for details. DesiZ28@hotmail.com

EDIT: I can't see the switches on my work monitor but I can on my home one...weird.

how about something like this:

center console gage face


I have a small number of these console faces kicking around,
with the alum. face plate already set up as shown. It can be altered to suite.
Pictures #13 & 14 are a panel in my car, for my nitrous set up, line lock and egt scanner.

Wow those look sweet.

Nobody else makes them.

I'll take one.

Can we do a group purchase with enough people for a good deal.

I used to make these for people on this site until they tried to start making me pay advertising fee's... The cool thing about these were that not only could you put switches into them, but you could also install a light behind them and the logo of your choice would glow at night. You should see mine, the Z28 emblem glows really bright red at night. Looks sweet!

Nope.... sorry. Whatever quantity I have, they are all exactly the same as shown in the first few pictures. The Campro Design piece has been machined to except an aluminm face plate.
The alum plate can be laid out in many ways.

Yup.

I'll talk to the guy tonight.

He said he could make them with the switches installed, no switches, toggle switches, lighted rocker switches, or two holes for guages, painted, not painted.

Him and I are doing my entire interior. Fibreglassing and painting most everything. He does very good work.
