You should probably go to thier website and order a free catalog. They're making more stuff every year for these cars.

Re: Rear deck/trunk divider. help
Good luck finding an unmolested dash for these cars. I tried and tried, but was unsuccessful. I found one on eBay that went for over $1,200 at auction's end.
I purchased and tried to install one of the dash caps, but the vent cut-outs didn't line up perfectly on mine. I've seen some decent installs, but they're never perfect. You can always see a little bit of the factory dash around the bottom corners. Since my dash was literally destroyed, I removed it and sent it to Just Dashes. They specialize in completely removing the original vinyl and padding and rebuild it by hand. They then put it into the Thermo Vacuum Forming matching and vacuum form the new vinyl just like it was done at the factory. The results are absolutely AMAZING, but pricy. Each dash requires a custom quote, but you're looking at about $800 or so.
I guess it's all a matter of how far you want to go with the car. I was going to just do the dash cap, but I got so carried away with the rest of it, I just couldn't see settling when it came to the dash.
