Say I just checked out your web page and saw your interior. Where did you get those small toggel switches from? Can they be bought anywhere?

Also I think you have 2 different color needles. Seems like your aftermarket guages are orange and your GM ones are white. I had the same problem but bought some model car Testors paint($2.00) and painted my needles(30 minutes to complete) orange. I don't have the paint with me now but I can get you the exact color if you are interested. It made my dash look unified and complete. Many people now think my aftermarket guages are factory because of my painting the factory needles to match.

I painted my needles with Testors model paint too, but I used red.

That's the same color as mine. It looks like a reddish orange but technically is a shade of red.
