Congrats all the way.

Awesome looking cluster. I think speedometer needs to be rotated to the right just a bit. It looks crooked. Great job though.

Actually MPH at bottom didnt look level to me, might just be how it looks in picture though. Still wish I had a cluster like that though

I think it is beacuse he didnt shoot it exactly head on...looks like the right sits back a bit more on the table. Looks great though!

I agree, very nice cluster. Nice Pictures. Gives a really good idea to make your own cluster.

I like it a lot. How are you going to blend it in with the plastic bezel in the truck?

The Gauges on the bottom next to the speedo are dual needle air pressure gauges for my suspension. The cluster fits into where the original fit, but I cut out the two center bars out of the surround. I fiberglasses shut the openings that were left and filled and painted it. Almost looks factory.

Heres a link to it in the vehicle before the addition of the two air pressure gauges.
