5-speed Console Plate (template Needed)

Ok I have a problem that I know some other people are having, I switched over to a T-5 and can't find the 5 speed shifter console plate. Yes I know I could pay 125.00 and get one from Classic Industries, and hawks, thirdgen Resource, Ect. Don't have any, and I have tired to Win on Ebay Haaa the last one wen't for 60.00 and I didn't have a chance.

I Was hopping That some one out there with a original one would Do Me a huge Favor, I Need a Template Made out of cardboard With All Opening's besides the ash Tray So I can Start make one out of fiberglass.

As soon as I have the main one made out of fiberglass that is a perfect fit In my Car I will then do a cost/Time analyis and See what it would take for me to make these for a few other people at the Very low Price so that We Manual Guys have Options. Or I will do a Tech article On how to do it with all measurements and supplies.

Plese Help Me Out!!!

I've got one with the power windows and power mirror switch cutouts that has a couple of cig burns on it that I can loan you for a template - provided you help me out with one of the ones you can make up once you're done. Email me your address and I'll get it on the way to you!

Have a Great Day!!!

Ok People I think Vernw Is going to loan me one for a template and I was wondering Which would you prefer a Picture loaded Tech article of how to make it or to see how much it cost me to make and sell them.

Edit: 88txiroc, GTA4ME if there are any rules or procedures i need to do before making a custome piece and selling them please let me know, I don't want to get in trouble, Just want to give 5-speed ownes some Options.
