new gauge bezel quality ?'s - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

alright, since search is gone i gotta ask who you guys got your bezels from and the quality of the chrome. Preferrably a board vendor. i just bought a camaro tach on evil bay so am gonna do the upgrade and want to swap out the bezel at the same time. and has anyone added the camaro clock as well as the tach? thanks for any replies!

I got a bezel from rick's last year.It looks real good.

All are probably made by the same company. Have purchased 3 all look the same. (from 3 different vendors)

All of them I've ever bought were good quality. I've never had any complaints.

I wouldn't trust a Camaro clock for anything. As they say, mines right twice a day though. If you were to go that route and acutally wanted to refer to it for accurate time, you'd better get it converted to quartz. Mine hasn't worked since I got my Z28.

The 4 or so inst bezels I have bought fit about 98% properly. They were all close....dam close, but not quite perfect.
But good enough is too good for my junk so it's all good.
