What is this plastic piece Near the Idiot/Warning Lights?!?!?
Alright guys i got a FC 88 vert and I'm trying to make my interior fresh as possible and looking at the idiot/warning console it was cracked so I took off that plastic piece that goes right in front of it. What is this piece called and where can I get another? Its fairly an annoying problem for me haha and if there's another way to cover it any tips on a custom built one is welcome

It is called the Auto Clock Bezel. Mid run in 88, they switched the warning unit to slope like the S5 units instead of like the other S4 units. I'm not sure from the picture which one your car uses. If the plastic on your warning panel sticks out more on the top than the bottom, you have the newer 88-91 style. Some 88's I've seen have the 86-87 style though.

Very common. When I had my 87, I literally could just pick it up and it crumpled to pieces... Lol, needless to say I had a "wtf?" moment. Never bothered replacing it as I had more pressing issues.
