So, let’s see what I can find in a Aluminum tube to begin my experiment. I’m not an engineer, so this is my best at getting started...

Any input is very welcome. I’m hoping to develop something everyone may use in your projects and except for full OEM correct restoration, this will hopefully be an option for Gauge Cluster rebuilds that is a “life long” fix.

Here’s my pics to begin my idea. Suggestions, constructive criticism, technically help is welcome and I’ll do my best. Cheers, Tony
3/4” Type M copper tubing is close enough. Home Depot, don’t have to pay for shipping ?
