Re: Gauges in stock bezel?

I have them in mine. I bought 2 sets of 4wire trailer plugs and used colored electrical tape to not get confused which one plugs in where. It was cheap and makes it easy to remove the cluster if you ever have to.

Looks good! I am debating whether to make the switch. Did you have to make an adapter for the clock?

The tach and speedo are 5" and the rest are 2 5/8..There is a spacer for the clock to fit..
