Now available aftermarket 60-63 cluster lenses
 
Nothing for sale just passing parts information. Hope this is OK to post??

Through the Counterpart vendor, you can now order cluster lenses for both 60-63 warning light clusters as well as full gauge clusters. As you may know the full gauge lenses are the same for tach clusters as they are non tach clusters.

These were not available for a long time and just caught my attention. Sure make a nicer restoration. These lenses are getting extremely hard to find in driver quality condition. There age cannot be denied and once they are are dried out, not much choice for a lens.

This is not to say that every OE lens you find will be bad but more than not are from my experience.

NOTE: I have not used one myself at this time so I have no comment to how they look in a cluster.

If you have used one, please comment on your thoughts on quality. I know the font is not going to match OE but other than that, the overall quality. Do you have to bow it to get it in place? Is the lettering/numbering in the correct space and centered?

Thank you for reading,
Tom
