Radio Bezel for a 1986

Searching for a radio bezel for a 1986 Turbo car. The black with gray trim piece that goes around the radio, temperature control and cubby hole.  Trying to find one with unbroken mounting tabs.  Will need to have it shipped to 37122 zip code.  THANKS!!

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

Turbo cars only came with the full consoles as they were either manual or had the floor shifter.

86 turbo cars are this pattern...

Just an FYI in case you want the replacements to visually the rest of the dash surround. The XR-7's had a grid looking pattern to them and the Turbo Coupe's had a brushed aluminum look.
