Firebird manual shifter plate
Does anybody know where I can get a Firebird manual shifter plate? Third Gen Resource, Hawks, Year One, and Classic Industries all don't have them as far as I can tell.

I replaced mine that had some cig marks on it from the previous owner with one off eBay. They're few and far between, but they do come up. I had to cut the holes for my power mirrors and windows, but it came out just fine. Need one with some cig burns real cheap?

Tom at www.houseofcamaro.com MIGHT have a used one that would be in pretty good shape. He's always got them for automatics but doesn't get as many manuals, so I'm not positive he's got one at the moment. But it's worth a try.

I've looked everywhere for a new replacement for my '91 ,but they've been discontinued. If you go to www.micromark.com(it's a model building supply co.) you can order a kit to polish your used one.It come with sandpaper from 2400-12000 grit and a bottle of pollish. I took my plate apart, masked off the raised areas and just finished the sanding . It looks almost as good as a new one.I need to finish pollishing and put the new shifter boot and window switches in,and it will be done. (the kit also works well on taillights and fillerpanel) Chris
