Gaube Cluster

[bdevries]

I have a 1977 Blazer and my gauge cluster is faded so bad that i cant see the gauges. I am wondering if anyone knows where i can find a new gauge cluster for my truck.

Thanks

junkyard is best bet, there are places that sell new ones, but they cost $$$
are the guages actually faded? or just the lens? most of the trucks ive seen have the lens get pretty bad(foggy yellowish brown color) , but the guages remain in "good" shape

I'll second that. I was surprised to find that my guages looked brand new under there.

the gauges are in good shape i just need the plastic part it is yellow and faded so bad that i cant see through it. do you know anywhere i can get just the plastic piece? i looked on e-bay but all of the guage clusters dont come with that piece. let me know. thanks

$50 from LMC

#38-8003 if you don't have a clock, #38-8001 if you do have a clock. #38-8005 if you don't have the small guages on the left, and only have the two large ones.

I'd also suggest checking all those wedge bulbs while you're in there. I could just about guarantee that you have a few burnt out. Getting them all going again made a huge difference for me.
