Replacement Instrument gauges

[BrianG]

I am about to refresh my instrument cluster. I have a kit to add a tach, and change from amp meter to volt guage. I'm considering replacing the Spedometer, Fuel, and oil guages. I have read posts in the pasts that seemed to indicate that the replacement gauges were sort of garbage. I'm just wondering if that is still the case. I'd like to start off the build with zero miles on the odometer, but don't really want to take mine apart to try to reset it. So, are the guages getting any better in quality, would they be any better than 45 year old gauges? Are there different quality version available form different venders? I do want to stick with the stock look also. Any help and info would be appreciated.
