WTB - NA Lower dash panel under steering column

Missing from my car when I bought it, I'm looking for the panel that mounts under the steering column. Needs to be black (are they all black? I'm not sure).

Got one, let me know if you still need it. Yes, this one is black.

90-93 != 94-97 in case you didn't know.

Yes I am aware of the differences. I have one from a 1996, so it should fit his 1995 just fine.

Also, US spec pieces are metal so the airbag doesn't melt it when it goes off. Foreign spec w/o airbags are plastic.

Metal, eh? It's the missing panel in this picture.

Thanks,

Yes, that panel in US cars is metal... and surprisingly heavy. Elsewhere it's plastic. Somehow the airbag gas makes it's way back there during discharge and the plastic will melt all over your legs.
