Gauge Cluster
Can someone tell me the 'gauge' sizes (diameter) on the bezels for 67-72 Chev/GMC? We're going to need a new bezel, and thought this might be 'practical'.
Thanks, Billy G

I have put both 2" and 2-1/16" aftermarket guages in the bottom row on my guage cluster, and they fit fine. The center tach hole fits a 3-3/8" tach just fine. I think the speedometer and gas guages are 5" each....not sure though.

guages
With a litttle trimming you can put 2 5/8 guages in the bottom holes, 3 3/8 in the top middle and then two 5 " in the big holes.

You can fit the 2-3/8 BEHIND the plexiglass if you are willing to work hard enough.....
 You can see that I've put all new gauges in the small holes across the bottom, and put a new tach also.... you have to pull the bezels off the gauges to do it....and that's hard to do when you just spend a few hundred bucks for them!!!
