New gauge cluster

I have to have this: https://www.google.com/search?q=73-7...axbsjLNWjR75M:

I need a new speed-o gauge anyway, and my oil and temp gauge will drop right into this. It would be nice to have gauges I can be confident about. I don't know how long my speedo was missing miles and making me think I was getting bad mpg. I also thing it will look a lot better than oe.

I've been thinking about that panel also. I read a couple of reviews that said the panel was difficult to fit. It'd be nice to have the speedometer and tach in the dash panel.

I like the look of that unit, but you could also go with something more simple such as this (just an idea).

Looks like the gauges would sit a lot further forward with this option - not sure how I would like that.

At that angle the gauges would be inline with your crotch. They’re very proud of that single operation stamping, aren’t they.
