Some have said that the ones for late 80s, early 90s Mustangs work with a little trimming.

That's the one I have as well. It isn't on the car yet but I've done some test fitting. It isn't perfect but minor changes will make it work.
I think I ordered mine from Summit.

That's the closest fit you'll find unless someone custom makes them.

Tom junior runs the body shop and he uses the one pete suggested. Then he molds it into the pillar piece with some sort of stuff. (its secret body man goo i think) Then paints the whole mess to match the interior.
