Okay, the gagues are in the mail (should be here any day now) and the car will be in the driveway saturday (if not sooner)....where can i buy plastic to cover up the existing dash/gague part that i can mount these gagues? I figure i'll use something like 1/8 inch thick plastic or something...sound like a good plan? I'd like it to match the rest of the dash, (89 Formula), any ideas where to get this? Thanks,
-Chris

buy a thin sheet of aluminum at a home depot and use some tin snips to cut it out. paint it whatever color you want to end up with. i have pics on my cardomain site in sig of the finished product.

call a glass shop. they usually carry ABS plastic. its black. smooth on one side and textured on the other. scary how close it matches to the 3rd gen black dash parts.
