instrument panel

in the june '06 issues of Chevy High Perf, there is an article about a sweet 82-89 instrument panel on the aftermarket, I was just wondering if anything like it is available for the 90-92 'maros. If you didn't get to read it, it was a covans classics piece, with autometer gauges.

thanks for the help

I saw that one in a magazine.
The price was incredibly high IMHO. That prompted me to make my own for a fraction of the cost, using only the essential guages. I always was a cheap a$$.
(Hope this link works)

The guages in this panel are the same Cyberdyne guages. I got the individual guages from Sumitt, mounted them to a sheet of painted aluminum, and fastened them to the original guage cluster. It was no easy task, but I saved hundreds. Took one day for measuring/planning and another full day to fabricate/wire in sending units, etc.
Too bad they came out with the blue lit guages 6 months too late! Would have been nice to have those instead of red.
