    I'm modding an extra bezel I have and using 3 1/2 inch tach and speedo... I was going to just use a metal backing plate,but realized they will lean down... So I'm back too the drawing board....

    Yea, I was thinking about removing the originals and attaching these somehow to the rear of the cluster to have somewhat of an original look. RacerX what size are the gauges you are using?
