I would also like to know something on this. I received a new bezel with my tach dash. The original GM has about 6 small strips of 1/4" rubber cushions between the bezel and lens. These would not fit into the new bezel. If I used them, the lens sat 1/4" away from the bezel. The bezel was not formed deep enough around the lower gauges.
Who makes the correct bezel to use these pieces without modification?

Good question. Came with the dash.
Dash came from an individual. ( Knew you would ask that next.)

We have installed ours in our customers trucks with no problems. I think the 100% money back including shipping speaks for the quality of them.

bezel
I'm going to back up MOTHERTRUCKERS on this one. Buy made in the USA. I usually spend about $60 and it is worth it. Just keep in mind you get what you pay for! Problem with ebay is a lot of times the seller doesn't specify. Dealers can get the Taiwan versions for about $15 so they're happy to sell for $30!

The 67-68 dash instruments set up had 2 knobs on the left. The 69-72 had more options for gauges and had only 2 knobs all together.

i know i am just joking about that i do think it is odd though that you have to pay $20 extra for an extra hole because all the gauge bezels are interchangable.
