Now that's cool! I like how you copied the "stepped" look of the factory cluster housing. And the texture looks the same too.
What series autometer gauge are you using,and how well does the illumination match?

I really don't know, I got it from ebay for $10.50 + $10 shipping.

I wanted to, but only way to open the gauge is to pry the chrome ring, I can't put it back if I do.
