Default Ashtray Switch Panel

Whos running them? I was looking at the Painless ones BUT the only one that I found that was a gaurantee fit in the ashtray was carbon fiber and I wanted to go with something brushed aluminum. They make them in brushed aluminum and the sizes look correct but it doesnt say ashtray specific. What are you guys running? Im just lookig for a 4 rocker switch panel. Thanks.

SAMSEED:

What is that "Set Park Brake" switch on your center console. My 94 doesn't have that.

Yup. That's exactly what it is. It's designed to keep idiots from trying to take the top down or put the top up whole driving down the highway. yes, it was a problem in the past, LoL.

So you have to ahve the parking brake on (at least 1 click) to move the vert top.

Yeah, it's pretty funny because when my friend bought a 95 GT Vert he thought something was wrong with the top, it wasn't until he figured out that the e-brake had to be on to put it up or down that he was able to do it.

He went two weeks before he ever put the top down in his new GT.

samseed... that is the exact panel that I want but I just want it to be brushed aluminum not carbon fiber. 88cobra, thanks for the post but I was looking for something more like Painless's style.
