maybe try VDO?. I was gonna use them in my jeep.reenmachine said:I've had one for a long time. That's what I'm doing, but the aftermarket parts business is so competitive, especially online, that my wholesale for these gauges isn't much less than what you can find the gauges for from Summit or a similar site since they're so huge. They get massive discounts from Auto Meter that we little guys can't get, so they can retail stuff for only slightly more than we can get it for.
No kidding. I had a customer debating whether to get the 200 mph speedo!Edbert said:I just wish Autometer sold a 7K or 8K version of those tachs, and a 140mph speedo!
At least for my car and my driving the 10K tach and the 160mph speedo are just a waste or space and there's no hope of ever pegging my needle again.

I told him to get the 160, and if he sends me a picture of it pegged, I'll do the 200 mph upgrade for free.
1967-68 Gauge Supports now offered for your car. Accepts 3ea 2" gauges and 2ea 3 3/8" gauges or 2ea 5" gauges for a custom look using your stock gauge bezel.. For the 5" gauges, trimming the bezel is required. Complete instructions are included.
nice...that could be really useful for me. You have them in stock? I'll try one out.mdjay said:These new 67-68 gauge supports are just hitting the market. They give the option of using either 3 3/8" gauges in the middle, or 5" ones with a little trimming. Keep in mind, your gauge selection does become the majority of the cost of building these.
What it means is that you use three 2" gauges for the small ones, and either two 3-3/8" or two 5" gauges for the big ones (see the pics).Edbert said:Cool! Price seems reasonable but the wording is vague or incorrect.
The two large are 5", but what are the two sizes for the 3 smaller ones?

One thing...how does it go into the car? I don't see the top flange or the bottom tabs...

By 2" gauges, does it mean that 2-1/16" Auto Meter gauges will fit? Too bad it doesn't fit the 2-5/8" gauges...
I still don't see how it actually screws into the car though.
