Anyway to fit 4'' gauges?

[energiesource]

Is there anyway to fit 4 inch gauges without making it look retarded?

[nvrforgotten52]

fit them where?

[energiesource]

in the two 5'' parts of the gauge bezel
sorry

[nvrforgotten52]

that would be tough to pull off probaly... im sure somebody has done it though

[cdowns]

shouldnt be that hard to make a spacer to fill the 5"hole then drill a 4"hole in the spacer

If you faced the whole instrument bezel with a sheet of, say, 1/4" aluminum, or 3/8" plastic, even masonite, you could cut your own holes in whatever pattern you liked to fit your own custom gauges. Of course, you'd have to 86 the whole stock gauge set-up, but I think there are entries in the FAQs to mount [say] Auto-meter gauges in place of the factory stuff. You could have your own turn signal lites, and whatever custom switches you needed, where ever you found them most handy. I'd draw the line at a custom pocket pencil protector holder on the dash, however.

there isnt anything a roll of ductape and a sharp 6 inch bowie cant acomplish. You need to ask how to do it the right way. And i would consider the aluminum dash idea, or find someone selling an oringal dash cover without any holes. I bet you could buy one from a remanufacturer of new gauge bezels.

there are blank bezels out there i just dont remember who has them
