Center Bezel question

I have two questions.


First question is, the clock and the radio are they supposed to have a gap between them and the bezel? I installed the clock on a customers truck I am working on but had to use four washers to space the clock out to get it almost flush with the bezel. I know on my truck the radio sits about a 1/8 to 1/4 inch behind the bezel and I will be installing my clock soon on my truck and was curious if this is normal.


Second question is on the clock aspect, I have not found any on ebay but did they ever offer the black basket weave style bezel with radio and clock cutouts or did you have to go wood grain for the clock cutout similar to how the cruise was on a wood grain horn pad?

According to Gary's bezel thread there was a black weave bezel with clock and radio... the part number is in his spread sheet top of page 2

I have never noticed any gap between the radio or clock and the bezel. Every one I have seen has been flat against the bezel.

Ah ok, that is good to know I am cutting one up from a customer truck t use on mine till I can find an actual on with a clock cutout already.


I need to do some searching cause I know mine has a gap between the radio and the bezel. Wonder if something is not fitting right.
