Needed: Custom interior plastics - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I am just looking for a plate to replace my ashtray, but have 2 (1/4DIN) slots in it for HKS electronics.
I'm thinking that if someone has access to a mill, or something, they can make one out of ABS plastic, and sell it to me... I'd pay enough for one.  Or if there is something out there that sounds like what I need, let me in on it.
Just let me know 1) I can make it; 2) I can't make it; 3) I know where to buy one' or 4) You're nuts... and will never get one.
Thanks!

I'm not familair with the S14, is the ashtray space as large as the radio space? (i doubt it) If so Blitz makes a plate that can fit in there.

Jeff...get me a measurement of the area you need to fit as well as the timer and boost guage (those are the ones you are fitting right?) dimensions. You probably dont just want them to sit in there dangly like...so you'll want brackets in the back to hold them steady. Get all dimensions...or better yet draw me up something on cad and i'll talk to the Ford guys about getting it made.

You know i'd get the ashtray measurements myself from my car....but...well...ya know  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/sad.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

CAD huh?  If I had Krupa's classroom to use his CAD, I'd also have his mill.
