Re: Guage Cluster completed

That looks awesome!!! . What is that silver around the back of the clock?. How is the clock attached? Last question- how did you remove the paint lines of the lense?

Re: Guage Cluster completed

That's steel tape to help seal up the gap left from cutting the opening. It also secures the clock in place. The hard part was drilling the hole in the lens for the adjustment knob. Had to eyeball it and then mark where to drill. I used a 1/8" drill bit. All I did to remove the lines from the lens is scraped most of it off with my trusty wooden tooth pick and then used a fine rubbing compound to get rid of the rest........

Re: Guage Cluster completed

Cool. Thanks. The steel tape is a good idea. That stuff is strong and sticky!
