Yes but most of those are for right-hand drive cars. There are almost no bezels available for LHD.

Default WANTED: Cigar Lighter Bezel

Mark,

I know this was mentioned earlier, but 3d printing is an idea to consider. I modeled and printed some sun visor clips for my xjs because I was simply bored one day and didn't want to wait for them to be shipped to me. They're working great. I could buy a RHD part cheap, throw it in SolidWorks, mirror it to make it a LHD part, and print it. You would have to do some sanding and other post processing, but we could give it a try and see if it would work at least. It might be a viable option. And since I'm not selling it, I would be giving it away, I don't think there are any licensing issues?

Collins

I've been needing a cigar lighter bezel for quite some time. I'm not seeing that happening any time soon, so I'm now trying to find a way to secure the one I have, but drawing blank after blank.

the ( as mentioned ) cigar lighter bezel is still available in the UK , this is for the left hand side of the console, being US cars you want it on the other side

the good news is that the speed control switch bezel is also available , albeit very expensive, and would allow our US cousins to swap the cigar lighter and speed switch to the opposite sides, and thus have two brand new switch bezels

and the wiring looms will reach without issue
