Gauge cluster...

Hey guys, I'm trying to locate a PART of the gauge cluster...I need the clear plastic cover from the original style cluster (up to 91), WITH the trip meter.

None of the wrecking yards here have a cluster in good shape, from the right vintage...

I only need the plastic piece...

If the plastic is slightly scratched, many times it can be restored to like new with car wax.

i use johnson j-wax. used it many times.

Not scratched - it is actually missing a small chunk of it. A friend of mine was assisting in dash disassembly to install some dash speakers, and accidentally broke it...

This is my wife's van, and she's all concerned with the looks of the van - despite the fact that she needs serious front-end work, cooling system service, etc..., she's more concerned with making it look good...ARGH!

It is possible to bue a pice of plastic, to curve it under a boiling water and to cut it carefully... Or try to visit a junkyard...
