Dolphin gauges and clusters

Morning,
I was wondering if anyone has experience with Dolphin gauges and their cluster inserts?

I bought boat gauges from a company called Farria Beede. Took more work to get them to fit & had to hack up the stock bezel, but was able to retain the factory speedo & everything matches fairly well. I think I'm in the setup for less than $300.

I like the silver gauges. They look right.

They were by far the closest thing I could find. I was considering the AutoMeter Carbon Fiber, but these were much closer. I wish there were a better option for the tach; really don't think it looks "right" in its current position, but couldn't come up with a better idea.
