I know this is an old thread but I was subscribed a long time ago. 1980L-82 send me a PM. I have a set that are not originals, but bezels made off of originals that I am not using along with other parts for this set up. They are hard to come by for sure.

I am working with Mr 1980L on a used set I have. And a shout out to GoVetteGo for helping me out at the beginning of this thread when I started my own search for these things. Thanks John!

Guy in Washington parts out Corvettes and has these. No idea if price is fair or if he ships.
