Classic Instrument Gauges

I am thinking about trying a set of the G-Stock series gauges from Classic Instruments in my 86 Silverado. What's your guys experience with these ?
Installation info ? pictures ?

Thanks in advance !!

I put classic instruments ct730e in my 85 with my 99 ls1 and they work great, easy to set up and I think look really good and different then the Dakota gauges.
