Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Got my cluster all buttoned up, ready to go in the truck. Took a step back to do this (had them surface mounted already), but it looks so much better in my opinion.

What do you guys think?

I'll be udating Swervins old article on 73-87.com to reflect this alternative to mounting the gauges to the bezel. Took a little figuring out, but they fit great!

Sign me up. How do I purchase the brackets? lol ;)

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

That looks awesome!

Thanks guys. :)

I have four sets of brackets. I think they are spoken for, I'll have to go back and check. I need to write up installation instructions before these go out, and let those know what to expect when they arrive and install them.

Wonderful Job! Very clean install! Makes me start thinkin about aftermarket gauges...hmmm.

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Awesome job, looks like they were meant to be there.

That cluster is off the fricken hook! man! turned out great! :metal:

Biggest reason I like my 85mph speedo though, is that I can bury it. With a 160mph I'd get mad that I could only go a little over 1/2 way... :lol:

Those look amazing though, very sleek, nice flow!

I think you just convinced me to change mine, I've had mine surface mounted for the last 5 yrs. Are you making/selling the bracketry?

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Awesome job Jeff. I hope you're planning on making these and selling them because if so, sign me up for a set.

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

I want some too.....how much are a set of the gauges also?

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

BeaaaUUUtiful !!! :metal:

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Hello Jeff,

Very well done! The recessed mounting really defines the gauges, giving them an *almost* factory appearance. I also like that you've reused the factory gauge panel. I've never seen an aftermarket one that truly looked professional... the aluminum ones always look a little home fabricated and the plastic ones typically look cheap.

I hate poorly fit aftermarket gauges and you've done the exact opposite of that. Outstanding!

The finished product looks BAD A$$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i wanna see the instructions on here anyway to see how you installed them they look great also wanna know what and how u made the turn signals and brights i believe work...looks better than the Covans classics kit IMO....only thing left to try and cover is the hole for the gear indicator...still the cleanest ive seen

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Got dang it Jeff, even though I have mine glued and wired in, put me in line for a set of those brackets. Awesome Job my brother. Add those to your products for sale. Hell Yeah!!! Also I like the LED indicators and would like to know where you purchased them from and part #'s if needed. I can always un-hot-glue mine and use the brackets..

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Those look awesome and really clean. I also want to see the instructions and how much for the brackets?

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

very nice set up.

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Beautiful work! That is bad A$$.

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Does the sending unit's stay the same or do you need to swap them as well? And if so do they come with the gauges? I looked on Summit's site and don't see anything about sending units. Thanks for putting up with my stupid question....lol.

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

I'll take a set of brackets myself! Oh and throw in a set of those lights as well!!! Great work!!! Sign me up when your ready to take orders! Looks awesome!

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

Looks awesome, sign me up for a set as well :metal:

Re: Recessed gauge pics for Dennis, and those who were interested
 

WOW looks great.
Are those 5" tach/speedo?
What's the orange indicator in the center for?
