Re: Does Bezel screw directly into Cluster?

Good to know, its something I will ask the rep when I get my last drawing done. The parts will be solid with no webbing. The gauge has 2 holes where you could insert tiny screws to the clusters trim plate in the rendering, that piece will be glued and bolted to the black trim and clear lense of the cluster. the back part will mainly be to take up the same space as the original cluster mateiral + position the lamp in the right spot. I need to ask what temperature ranges the material deforms at because its a bulb and bulbs get warm and it would be a waste if the bulbs melt the nylon.... I will check and post my findings.
heres what the cluster will look like when finished
