Has anyone tried making the whole back part to the cluster out of aluminum. I think it would be cool to do because it would solve any broken mounting tab problems, you could make it to hold regular oil/temp/volt gauges and you could polish the inside to make the light extra bright for the stock speedo/tack or gas gauges. Just something ive been thinking about for a while for my truck, what do yall think?
