Choke delete instrument bezels-

Does anyone know who sells them? They have the hole for the choke but they don't say "choke above the hole, so you can use the choke delete accesory.

Re: Choke delete instrument bezels-

I may have to get a used one. I was hoping someone reproduces them.

Doesn't the stock choke delete plate cover the choke label? I'm sitting here looking at my delete plate and it looks like it is tall enough on the top to cover that.

Not quite but close, I tried grinding down the raised choke area on one of mine but I still could see it behind the delete plate. I've looked everywhere I could think of and have not found a repop bezel with out the raised choke "lettering". I ended up using the delete plate to fill a hole on my sons truck.

Re: Choke delete instrument bezels-

Yeah, I ground mine down too, but it doesn't quite cover the whole area, and it looks pretty crappy.

Re: Choke delete instrument bezels-

The GM delete uses a different bezel without the choke letters. The round delete in chrome or wrinkle comes with a tab that covers the word "choke". I am not sure which application went where... One was factory, and one dealer perhaps...

Re: Choke delete instrument bezels-

Thanks Eric - appreciate the pictures. That second one is a little different, I've never seen anything like that.

Re: Choke delete instrument bezels-

dan, can you move the choke delete up to cover the ground down area? Will the hole show at the bottom then?
