I don't know how much they cost but they obviously take a long time to make. As I said above, Iv'e been waiting since the first torana meet @ Bathurst (2002)!! I followed up again just prior to the 2004 event but was still down the list (relegated by those attending the meet) and still haven't heard anything. I've more or less given up on Grant and am eargerly awaiting the Rares ones by the end of the year. From memory the price estimate for them was about $120-00.

$145 supply only for surround
$195 if they fit surround (this includes fitting cleaning and recolour) like new
they do recommend to get them to to the job as there plastic like the originals and easily broken

It is every bit as good as the original. The only difference i could find is the mounting lugs on the repro are a bit shorter (but quite long enough and the originals were too long anyway). You can't see the lugs when the console is installed .
Cost was $50 plus registered postage so I had it for $60 total. Apparently made from polycarbonate it is every bit as firm as the original but won't break from just looking at it like the originals seem to these days.
Even if your original is perfect I would still consider getting one of these while you can (it is only a matter of time before you knock the original and it breaks).
Thanks gm3300. Any chance you can make the shift pattern plate???
