I am looking for an Instrument Control Panel (Lower Dash bezel) for my 1971 442 convertible. Preferably black. Anyone have one available?

Pretty sure I have one, give me a day or so to get pix to you? I know I have one or two from a convertible, but I don't think they are black. Might have a regular one that you can cut out for the switch in black.
Thanks.

Thanks, Scott. I realized after I posted that I should have contacted you! Are the switch cut-out patterns molded in?
The previous owner cut mine up to install a newer radio.
Question - How do I remove the chrome trim plates surrounding the switches? Do they just pry off?

John,
Here are a few pix that might answer some of your questions. I have a real nice black lower dash that has one tiny crack to the left of the wiper switch. It is stored in the rafters of my garage so I didn't get a real nice picture of it yet. The switch itself is held to the dash by 2 1/4" screws. The trim plates are held on by 2 1/4" nuts. The sections are molded into the dash where the top switch/tail gate switch/cruise control switch would go if your car had those options.
Give me a call & we can work out any more questions & prices?
Thanks.
