Pontiac Solstice Forum - View Single Post - mod of stock gauge cluster in V8's??

Jeez yamatd3, that is exactly it! How did you do that? I see the gauge faces are custom, but is it stock hardware behind (except of course for the water gauge bottom center)? If so, how did you swap the tach and speedo? Any issues with glare? DO TELL!!!

Below is the look I'm going for, followed by stock for reference. I have the new gauge faceplate on order from Black Cat Customs. Alex said he can emulate the MGB gauges almost perfectly. Will take him a few weeks though.
