W/O gauges this can be cut to make up a case for after
market gauges. all tab on it and shifter tab for wire there too.
in really nice shape. I have 3 pic if you need more or mailed to you
let me know.$ 15.00 or make offer + shipping Aftermarket Gauge Install - Surface Mounted :Written by: Jeff Drew This is a “how-to” article on how I installed my Autometer Ultralight gauges into my ’73. As many of you may agree, the stock gauges and dash lights on 73-87 GM trucks have lots of room for improvements. The gauges themselves are not completely accurate (as with most stock gauges in older cars/trucks) and can be difficult to see and read due to a rather poor lighting design from GM. The following steps will show you how to install aftermarket gauges just about any truck, Suburban, or Blazer of the 73-87 (88-91) vintage. Here is a list of the following items you will need to perform this upgrade… Gauges - 5” tachometer - 5” speedometer - 2 5/8” oil pressure - 2 5/8” water temp - 2 5/8” voltmeter - 2 5/8” fuel Misc. - stock dash bezel - stock gauge cluster housing - aluminum bezel - (3) LED indicators - gauge wiring harness (optional) Tools - electrdermalmel with various attachments - sandpaper - hobby saw - drill with various bits link to this: if you want to do something like this.. www.73-87.com/7387garage/interior/gauge_surface.htm |

Do you still have the case?
I think I might need it. I have a bezel and 6 Autometer gauges I am making a custom setup for but I think I will need the case to modify in order to have something to bolt the factory bezel to.
Lemme know.

Is this what your hopeing to do?. Yes I have it still, this is a really nice gauge cluster all most like new and all the stuff you would need is there on the case & not broken. See the link above. I was going to let some have a chance at it. But if no one takes it, I was going to cut off all the out side parts that brake off all the time. To fix other clusters I have. Soon some time near end of Jan 2007 because it taking up room now. Let me know if you would like it.

Hey, cool. Thanks for the link, I read that one some time ago when I was doing research for the project and forgot about it. I think I will do mine a bit differently then the way he did his. All you really need to do is cut the back side of the factory bezel out in each gauge hole and the new ones will go right on over the outside and then retain easily with the new hardware.
But since I broke my old casing I will need yours! (Heheh... Sounds like you are familiar with this one!)
Check your PM's Pontiac, we'll settle up on payments and shipping.
Thanks.
