defrost vents?

Ok, so if you don't want a dash pad to cover the metal dash board is there any type of defrost vent bezel similar to the ones that are in the dash pad? It seems like I have seen them before but I am not sure where? Anyone have any info?

Thanks,
Tim

f100today,
On my 69, I just pulled the louvers out of the trashed pad, cleaned them up and painted (actually powder coated) them. They are a perfect fit and even have little dimples where you need to drill holes for the screws. I'll post a couple pics when I can.
HTH,
Gene
