Default Dash question

Hey guys, I'm in the progress of a C5 dash swap into my 87 trans am (i know, i know. I've heard 100+ people tell me it cant be done I measured my friends c5 dash and my trans ams, and it will fit with some work.)
Anyways, I need a few of these brackets that the pad/cluster mount to, however I have no idea what they're called. If anyone knows what these two circled brackets are called or part #'s I'd be very greatful.

Thanks!

If you need those pieces you might want to send that picture to corvetterecycling and see if they can get them for you. But I have no idea what they are called.

For sure, thanks for the tip!

I'm not sure if linking to other forums is allowed here, so sorry if it's not. My build threads over at: http://www.ls1tech.com/forums/forced...6-0-build.html

Forged LQ4 Twin GT3582R's and 18-20psi

I've always loved the c5 dash and cluster. Only seemed right xD I'll keep you guys updated, thanks!
