A few months ago, I saw that somebody was producing a plastic backing plate that mounted 5 Autometer gauges to your existing 66 bezel with NO cutting...

Just obtain this plate, a lens, and a 66 bezel, and it all SCREWS together. Yes, I know that I could hack, cut & modify an original backing plate, but this seemed like a REALLY slick deal...

Now, where did I see those????? Seems like they were $25-$35 or so....
Buehler??? Buehler?? Buehler?

 

doesnt MustangSteve have those bezels in chrome now? I'm grasping here....

I haven't seen this product before, but I should take this time to say that this forum enforces the proper spelling of Bueller.

 

Thank you!


Come on, Cloney, you can to better than that.

 

They were on eBay, I could not find them in a quick search today though.

 

According to his site, they are in the works but nothing official yet. His is an all aluminum bezel that has been chrome plated.

 

Bob,

I know exactly what you're talking about.......... The guy that makes/markets those is out here in my neck of the woods (Actually down in the Portland, OR area. I think I've got his card at the house :scratch: (He also does a nice set of sequential tail lights ). Just last week I saw one of his injection molded backing clusters on E-Bay.

If I can find his number I'll post it

 

AHA, found it.

Let the pondering begin... :scratch:

 

Ah man, now BLAKE's busting my chops - I expect that from the rest of you guys, but BLAKE?

As a penance, I will type Bueller correctly 100 times....

LOL! Ok, so maybe he cut-and-pasted it, but he did do it 100 times. (I actually counted) :P

 

checked Haneline or JME?

heres the JME... one they have the white face gages too... and the aluminum bezel also.....

 

and the HEADLINE WHICH HAS THE CHOICE OF 5 different gage colors.. and two bezels...Brushed or Engine Turned Stainless

 

you can find both of these at mustangdepot.com

 

Not interested in paying hundreds for a JME/Haneline bezel, when I can buy the Ebay piece for <$40. Besides, I need 5 dials, not the aftermarket 6 dial stuff... :nono: And the turned/brushed stuff doesn't "do it" for my interior scheme.

 

Hey Bob, got those gauges in yet? How'd this thing work out for you? :scratch:

 

Mocked up with a couple of old gauges. The gauges fit in the backing plate and bezel nicely. Probably a couple months before I get to the point of installing it with all 5 gauges though. Still pondering what the 5th gauge will be... :scratch:

 

Just curious what the critics though of this:

 

Overall it looks good. Why different gauges? And why the woodgrain (just not a fan myself)?

Who is the supplier of that housing? I know I caught your description on SN but it escapes me now...
