ribbed dash material

I am installing an aftermarket cassette player in my 67 cutlass. I sheet of ribbed/coricated material similar to the dash trim on 66 and 67 would really do the trick. About 2 1/4 " high and 10" wide. Is such a material available?

Basically when you put in an aftermarket Cd player, when you cut the hole for the chassis it's about 1 inch short overall. What your left with is a half area that used to house the **** posts from the old stock radio.

So I need to cut out that area and splice some new material to cover the hole's. About 4 inches of the black strip that runs from the right side of the radio (the stock radio is mounted to it) all the way thru the gauge cluster is what we are talking about.
