Re: Camaro Double DIN radio brackets from Screaming Chicken

That is great news. Will the finished bezels have the tron pattern?

That is something the supplier is working on. They will be more expensive to produce so we might offer a bezel with a texture and another with the tron pattern.

2 issues so far that are holding up that product:
- The radio pods I have are in rough shape with busted mounting tabs. New reproduction pods might be something available in the near future thru a supplier and I'm also looking for one in better shape thru Ebay and other sellers.
- The grid pattern and finish doesn't print well enough, that is something the bezel makers are working on still. Would be possible for the bezel to have a finish similar to the Camaro, but nothing that would match the original bezel.

Re: Camaro Double DIN radio brackets from Screaming Chicken

Okay, I'm not to worried about having the grid pattern or not. So if I pick up a set of your brackets and acquire my own bezel for it would I be good to go?

Current Camaro brackets do not fit 1985-92 Firebirds unless you drill holes and modify the brackets a lot. Once I can find a Firebird radio pod without broken mounting tabs we plan to make Firebird brackets.

Every Firebird pod I find is broken up and missing mountings points, which doesn't work well for making brackets that fit correctly. Normally they have at least 3 out of 4 so I can tell the Camaro wouldn't fit without modifications, but that's about all they are good for.

Finally started working on my firebird and the pod is completely intact! If you want to dm me I wouldn't mind sending it to you!

I'm in the process of getting the firebird molds quoted as well as working on the last 20% of the 20 ton mold machine.
