Out with the old, and in with the new.
Old cluster bezel, and the new one. It took about 45 min. Like the results. Hope the pics show them ok.

Looks nice. I can tell the difference in the chrome... If you ever pull the cluster again, I would repaint the needles on the guages(only takes about 15 minutes) and dust off the guages and lightly clean the lense. It make's a world of improvement and will look like a completely new cluster...
 Good Job though... L8R - Joe

Look around the bottom of the speedo and gas gauge, you can see the old one has the chrome worn off. Looks awesome to me.

There is a huge diff between the two, it looks great, it's amazing how just changing the bezel can make a difference in the feel of the interior. Ya'll who cant see a diff are blind and rather rude......

Lookin' good Silly. Things like that seem to make your truck look and feel a whole lot better. If you ever do pull the cluster out again, you can get a small jar of bright orange model car paint from walmart or somewhere like that and a brush. Probably less than $3. That will make a big difference also. Lookin' good.............Jerry

Ok I was not looking at the bezel, I was looking at the gauges. Now that I know I am look at the right thing it does look good.

Maybe a better pic of the new? Hard to get a good pic in such a small space.
