Mine is actually a piece for the Mustang Mullet, I mean Bullet. It required a fair amount of work to get it to sit exactly right on the shift surround as it was larger in every measurement than the stock opening. I actually wound up sanding the raised "lip" that goes around the surround flat for about three quarters of the way around it. Then I had to repaint it the Anodized Bronze colour that is my dash. Thankgoodness home Depot had a paint that was an almost perfect match.
