At the last Carlisle show, I won at auction one of those 3D printed console skeleton sets. All the screw holes are in the factory position. I could bring it to the next meeting (assuming I don't get some disease like COVID that would keep me away).

I would really appreciate that if you did

I have an old skeleton... somewhere.
What do you need?  Measurements, or the skeleton?

Preferably the skeleton so I can get measurements myself , but I only need to borrow it for measurements. I won’t be using it in my car or destroying it

General Fiero Discussion / Double DIN radio Help

« on: February 20, 2023, 08:11:04 pm »

Hi everyone,

If you saw at the last meeting I've been working on creating a factory looking center console bezel for the radio and HVAC controls that fits a double DIN radio with Jason. I've attached a couple images below. I'd like to start selling these in the near future but there are a couple things I need to nail down before I get to that point. First is how to adapt the rectangular radio hole to all double DIN radios. The radio Jason provided to me had a slightly different sized screen than another radio he got, and so the new radio does not fit properly. I was curious if anyone here knew if new radios come with plastic bezel adapters out of their boxes or something like that. The second thing I have to work out is mounting brackets. I'd need a center skeleton to take measurements off of so that I can print or fabricate metal radio brackets so that I can make this kit as close to "plug and play" as possible. If anyone is willing to help me out, please reach out to me here or via email at winstonxiao9200@gmail.com. Thanks a lot everyone!

Hi everyone,

My name is Winston and I'm an Engineering student at Georgia Tech. I attended my first meeting this past Saturday and it was a pleasure meeting everyone in person! I own a white 88 GT which is back in NJ but down here I have an 85 Vette as well which needs a lot of work if any of you guys are vette guys and willing to provide assistance. I make the gated shift plates and some custom shift knobs that you may have seen on Facebook and I've been working on carbon fiber scoops for the car, as well as some other interesting projects. I have access to a lot of complex machinery including 3D printers, water jets, and CNC machines so if I have the time and there is interest, I might be able to create some pretty interesting stuff. Thanks for the warm welcome to the club!
