I need help finding a billet gauge cluster.

I am looking to see were I can pick up a billet gauge cluster along with the matching glove compartment door like in the following pic.

That looks like a truck I saw at Super Chevy in Memphis.

Re: I need help finding a billet gauge cluster.

I think polishing one of Ryan's would be the way to go. The ones in the picture are flat and Ryan's have the right contours....just my .02

For sure. I have seen them in person as well - they are super nice.

Re: I need help finding a billet gauge cluster.

I really like the one pictured above because the two center gauges are spaced close together. This is really important to me because with my Grant wheel on the stock style, I can't see 1/2 the speedometer without moving my head. It would be nice if Ryan did his this way, since his is an overall better looking product.

That was my biggest complaint with the stock gauge locations too. I had one that I did that kept the stock locations with all autometers and you did some head moving to see them. I don't think the no limit one looks like as natural in it's spacing, but like the idea of better viewing angles. Anybody have these and confirm that they are in fact easier to see. I'm looking at ordering one.

Best pass with the old dragtruck:
