Hi There
Does any body know if you can replace the chrome rims on the instruments such as petrol gauge etc, and is there anybody out there that sells a full set ?
Thanks

Thanks

Yes, they were easy to fit, the only one I didn't change was the ammeter as it is soldered on, luckily it polished up OK.

Hi I am still trying yo find gauge bezels for my Ruby and have had a couple of leads , however I am measuring them on the external width of the gage bezel and am finding that they don't seem to match up with what is available, IE petrol gauge- two and three sixtieths, amp gauge - one and three quarters
My question is; are the ones out there based on the inner measurement of the bezel face, meaning the back of the bezel rather than the front of the bezel ? which could be a smaller diameter if the bezel is tapered

In the past I have had instrument bezels polished and replated.
