White face Gauges

OK guys heres the deal:
I want to put the white face gauges back in my car, the only problem is the templates on Unforgivens site and a few others dont really show the edges too well. This making it hard to cut them to fit and 89 RS cluster. I was wondering if any one had or could anyone scan in the real deal? I just want to see the shape of the Volt Meter, the Gas, and the Temp. Also I want to see how big the holes are for the needles to slide through. Takin them off and puttin them back are in a PITA. Aight thats about it, thanks guys

A hole puncher will make the correct size hole.

Arent the holes on the McGwen Overlays big enough for the needle to slide through? A hole punch is still too small for the base of the needle ( the black part on the end)

I thought the McGwen Overlays had X shaped slits

The install was pretty easy, the hole is probebly 1/2inch across and the tabs that wrap around the original guages are very helpful with lining it up and keeping it in place, it was worth the money
