Completed the swap to Speedhut gauges after my tach died. Overall very happy with the results so far. I now have a near complete cluster (gauges, hardware, and brushed metal bezel) sitting in my garage and figured I would mention it to members before I put them on eBay. If anyone is interested in a single gauge or would like the whole set please send an offer to my email. devonmwood85@gmail.com Thank you

Keep them! And watch your Speedhut speedometer - in my experience, it's accuracy is unreliable... YMMV...

Let me mention one other advantage of the Speedhut gauge panel. Several of you prop your iPhones up against the gauges behind the switches. I do too. As long as you’re not driving aggressively, it stays there pretty well and is easy to see.

in December I got a new iPhone 12 Pro Max. Being larger than the regular size phone, it slips around more easily. So I plan to drill some holes in the metal panel and put some clips or screws in it to keep the phone from sliding or falling backwards. Of course, I wouldn’t do that to the original panel (which is stored away in a sealed plastic bag), but I don’t mind messing with the Speedhut panel to customize it.
