Default Source for classic heater surround/triple gauge holder?

Hey guys, I'm new to the world of Impreza's having just bought a 1997 Turbo 2000 Classic (V3 I think). It's an Australian import to the UK judging by the VIN number. I'm after a decent place to position 3 gauges (turbo, oil temp and oil pressure) and don't really like the pillar pods. Having looked about at various options I came across a gauge holder that replaces the centre air vents/heating control surround.

Has anyone got any links where I could source one? Milsport kept popping up as a manufacturer but I cant find them!

Here's a link to a photo of what I want:

Milsport I believe have stopped trading. I have the gauge holder from them that fits in the heater vent for sale. It was taken from my sti ra version 2 when I broke it. Open to offers.

Thanks for the reply! Is it the same as the one in the link I posted? If so, I'd be interested in buying it. Would you take £20 for it plus postage? I can pay via PayPal any time.

There seems to be a 3 gauge/vent combo on this site.

That's just the standard surround in carbon fibre, nowhere to mount the gauges as the round holes are for the heater controls.

The heater controls remain where they normally are, it's just the heater vents themselves that get done away with. Anyone got one sitting around they'd like to sell??
