I used the stock outer bezel/trim to mount my gauges. I had to open up the 2 left side holes and removed the bevel. The 2 right side holes I removed the bevel and connected them to make one large oval. I took a piece of tinted plexiglass and sprayed the backside black. Drilled 4 holes for the gauges. Mounted the plexi to the trim. Wiring them is a pain. Get yourself a good manual with a wiring diagram. GM was nice enough to give you very little slack so it pretty much sucks. Painless makes a gauge wiring harness that might make things easier. Didn't try it. If using a cable speedo I had to get a new one made. Stock is about 3" too short and doesn't have the same connector as Autometer.
