I am looking for the piece below in better shape than the one I have. I think it was used on cars with A/C as it is not as tall as the standard piece and the gauges are angles toward the driver.

Thanks in advance!

That's definitely an after market piece, they didn't come with an angled face from the factory.

I think this is what the dealer used when they added A/C since A/C didn't come from the factory.

Keep an eye on eBay. I see these regularly.

Thanks for the tip!

My car had dealer A/C installed but the gauge face plate was flat. I've purchased a few consoles that were the cut-down type for A/C cars and never seen one with the angled face plate

I did find one on eBay as suggested - but I don't think I will pay $85 when mine will work.

The angled gauge panel is the correct one with the dealer installed DPD type A/C unit. The VPC units with a center console use the staggered gauge panel.

That angled gauge panel on eBay has been listed there for a very long time. The dealer in Connecticut that originally sold my Can Am LE (with VPC A/C) must have been out of them because they merely cut down a standard panel...poorly. I've since sourced the staggered panel which is simply a very thin and flimsy leather-look plastic. The angled ones are much nicer.

That makes sense - thanks for the clarification. My car did have A/C installed but it was not in the car when I bought it but I can now assume it was DPD type.

Here's the face:

Here's the top for that face.

I never knew there was a top piece. Mine came with a homemade wood block wrapped in vinyl.

Thanks!

No top piece is required and there would be no room for it if a DPD A/C unit is still in place. I'm not sure what that is...maybe trim for the 914-6 style cubby.
