Here's my newest addition to my interior. It was a breeze to install.

Thanks for the kind words.
icemanZX3 - I ordered it from Sentry Auto Group and it cost $19.50 + $4.00 shipping. And they are silver face not white.

Dave R - the paint is malibu blue enamel (car paint) a friend of mine sprayed them for me.

Folk-S - The stereo cover is from Ford. It's out of the Sony Xplod Edition. The dark grey smudge is where the Sony logo used to be.

What is their web site for the surrounds? I tried Sentryautogroup.com and got a car dealership with a rather poor interface. I think those would look great in my little yellow Focus

That is where I got mine from. Here are the details from the thread I got their address from.

I just ordered the SVT snorkel from them (not here yet). The only downside with them is you have to submit a request, you get an email quote, then you call to make the order.

On the positive side, they are usually much cheaper than parts.com

just wondering, do not take it sarcastically but couldn't you order surrounds form ford? also love the blue!<hr></blockquote>

No sarcasm taken. Sentry Auto Group is a Ford dealer. My local dealer wouldn't order the bezel for me because they aren't an SVT dealer. And the closest one to me is over an 1.5 hour drive. This was just easier.

So that is just for the circular/round indicators, correct?

Oh, well I thought that the A/C gauges were sold separately. So if I was to paint mine could I take the A/C gauges off so i don't get paint on them or are they superglued?

Ok, you lost me here. Are you referring to the HVAC controls (the 3 dials)? And painting as in the whole dash piece? If so, everything just unscrews off the back of the dash piece.

Ok I know that sounded kinda confusing, but I can tell this car is a lot different from my Eclipse. I have seen some cars where the HVAC faces were superglued onto the dash piece, and some I have seen where they were separate from the dash piece. I got it now though, thankx
