New Dash panels for 1960-87 Chevy Trucks

I would need the small square cutout for the two diesel lights that go above the two main gauges. Plus it it need to be setup for four 2 5/8in gauges and either 2 3 3/8in or 2 5in main gauges. I have the smaller gauges hence wanting to reuse them. Would have to get the larger ones.

What are most people doing about indicator lights like turn, high beam, low coolant ect?

On the Diesel dashes you will have to cut out the indicators for low coolant. But you get a coolant gauge so I don't see the need for them. The Turn signal, High Beam and Parking break indicators come witht he dash if you get the electric gauge kit.
 
On the stock cluster the low coolant light is with the fuel gauge and it can be important to have. But its easy enough to add an idiot light for that. My main thing is the square cut out that's just above the speedo and fuels gauges. Course I guess I could cut that out too but I'd rather it come already done just to make it simpler.
 
wish i knew you sold these dash's and i wouldve gotten one from you when i got the gagues last weekend.:doah: they look great
 
Lets clear some shelves here! We've got new products coming out and I need the room!

PM me for the best pricing to blow your mind on dash panels and gauges.
 
We have been working on it frantically trying for a SEMA show unveil but it does not look like it will be feasible due to the fact that the wiring is giving us some issues.

But we are trying on it.

good luck stay strong
 
since your back at work lets see if your boss will let you build a blank panel like i wanted before ?

flat face all 3 so i can run 4 left / 2 center / 4 right and no a/c vent hole lower left and also no radio cut out. :whistle:

i would think some guys here doing gauge swaps would like this option so we can lay it out like we want . as some of us cant do the custom dash the other vendor sells .
 
The problem with doing a 100% flat panel on all three sides is that I'd have to change a $8,000 mold for a few panels. It's just not feasible for me. I have found out though you can put 2 2-1/16" gauges in the upper right corner and then the 2 2-5/8" gauges where the radio would go. The problem would be where the HVAC Controls would go. Unless you needed them cut open?
 
wow 8g's for a mold . i remeber shop class as a kid we did vac molding and it was easy :laugh:

but mass broduction and thicker / stiffer plastic = more money .

i am not sure if i am going to run hvac . if i did it would be just heater unit is all. and aftermarket unit at that .

i will have to think it over more.

The mold's machined out of billet aluminum for a reason lol.

Either way if you can use the heater control we may be able to make this work. Let me know!
 
It won't be cut, but there will be indented where it would normally go.
 
Stock Gauges not cutting it? Yeah we ralized that they sucked a long time ago! Time for an upgrade in the performance and the looks department for your dash! PM Me today.
 
I've got deals going all weekend long! PM me for the best deals anywhere. I'll even cut ya a break on all the panels too no matter what it is!
