I think what might actually cause that is some of the cleaners people use on their dash. I think there made of either butrate or Acrylic, and the plastic is easily damaged by chemicals. I have one faceplate here that looks like something ran down it. there are drip marks.

As for buying a shield, it seems to me that everyone wants to sell the whole cluster as a unit not breaking up the cluster.

I dunno the only thing you can do is call thirdgen or look in salvageyards.

try these part numbers 25084190 or 16134123

The first one is for 86-89, the second one is for 90-92, but I have a 92 cluster and the lens fit my 87 fine. probably a superceded part number.

hope that helps

John
