Has anyone used these?

Post by tazzman68 »

I want to redo my gauge cluster, and I got a new bezel the other day, and have to take averything apart anyways.

I haven't used the link your pointing to, but I have used the White faced overlays from Duranged Design. They are good overlays and seem like good people to deal with. Here is a link to his Ebay sale.

Here is what mine looks like so far, the original bezel will be flat black, and the white aluminum in the center is a template I made that will be replaced with polished stainless steel.

That looks really good, I'm ordering mine as soon as I can. I think I'm gonna do a piant mod on my bezel though, I am chicken to start cutting stuff up. I think the stock bezel, painted black, with the stripe through the middle left silver witht the black lettering should be cool. I'll post pics in my album as I do the work. Wish me luck.

I have been happy with mine in a new cluster from Dennis carpenter. Nuthin but positive comments from anyone who has seen it, it really brightens things up.

One thing to think about is with vinal overlays, you mix a few drops of soap with water to help put them on, and you don't have the problem lining them up some of the other overlays you have to have them where you want them when you stick because you can't move them.

I'm working on the Stainless insert now, and hope to have it done this weekend, I will post a picture when I do.
