Re: gauges
I hope I can still get them I have a Blazer and a Sub that need one. I have been collecting all the other gauges and all I need is the center where I was going to install the clock.

Re: gauges
Did you have to cut out the holes any? Any pics of the install, I'm about to do the same to mine.
