Re: Gauge Holes

If you're looking for the sizes so you can replace them with aftermarket gauges, it's more complicated than that.

If you find some that fit let me know.

I'd love to replace all my stock gauges with digital, but I don't think anybody makes them anymore for the birds.

Not really. The stock gauges aren't sized or mounted anything at all like aftermarket mounting gauges. You'd be fabricating an entirely new dash, at which point the size of the stock ones doesn't matter at all.
