Shawn's a friend but told me many years ago that it would be a year or more before he made any.
I made my own. You guys at The Vintage probably thought Shawn made it.
Takes time but not extremely difficult. Not exactly the same but close.
Didn't need the switch.

That's why mine is slightly different so I could get around the copyright.

That'll be far too thin. The gauges won't clear the AC blower.

It's official. Shawn and I will be working together to bring back his gauge panel. They will be released in order of the original waiting list, then to the rest of you guys. Both he and I are super busy at the moment and we do not anticipate being able to start the project till June, so please no PMs or emails (don't call us, we'll call you.) Posting your interest in this thread will help us figure out how many we should anticipate producing right off the bat.
Thanks for your interest!

That's very good news. I have been bugging Shawn for years so assume I am on your list. Please confirm when you get time. I need one. Will take another for posterity if it helps.

SWEEEET-
I need the oddball- E24- dual gauge ashtray mount.... so i may be screwed either way!
Good to see a great product return to market- Im sure you will make it to the same quality as Shawn did and as always- you will stand behind your product.
Thanks Moosehead!

I haven't got the list, but at some point (probably after Vintage) Shawn and I will come up with a plan of attack. We'll just need to know how many to make for now and then we'll work on order of distribution.

Interested as well. Any E23 options possible?

I'd be interested in one. I'm assuming the LHD one could just be flipped over and fit the same way? Would a nice addition.

I'm not familiar with the arrangement of the dash, so I'd have to have an E23 to inspect and a grille (or whatever console piece) to experiment with.

Is your console grille the same as the RHD ones fitted to US cars? If so, yes, as the grille is non-directional and for this purpose is symmetrical (cig lighter & ashtray position aside).
