Im looking for the clear dash cluster clear plastic cover for my 1981 Ford Ranger XLT F-150.Mine is cracked,so I would like to find a replacement.ANY ideals where I might find one,or anyone have one for sale?

 

The non trip meter one is still available. Try LMC, NPD, etc. The trip one is junk yard only or eBay.

Thanks guys

 

On a related topic (now that the OP has gotten his answer), does anyone know where to get the colored plastic filters/covers/whatever that are used for the turn signal and high beam indicators? The last time I had my bezel off I noticed that all of mine were cracked, and were barely holding on to their positions. When I accidentally brushed one with my fingertip, sure enough, it completely fell out. I was able to get it back in with a little superglue, but some excess glue got onto the cover and washed out the green coloring. Now my left turn indicator looks like ***.

Anyone know?

 

Are you talking about the rectangular things that fit in the dash bezel?

 

You might also be able to make new ones. I've experimented with getting some colored transparent plastic from a local plastic shop and then printing up clear decals and applying them to the new colored windows I made. It's very functional and looks pretty good. I'm still experimenting with it, however...I'd like to find a way to print something up directly on the plastic.

 

Yes. The little rectangular pieces of plastic that make the turn signals green, the high-beam indicator blue, and so on.

 

I am needing the answer to this question as well. A few of mine are broken and I had thought about cutting some thin plastic and gluing them to that, but replacing them would be less tedious.

 

Those came with the Instrument Bezel itself and didn't come seperately.

You have to buy a whole new bezel, or perhaps find a broken bezel in the wrecking yard and fix your old one with the pieces.

 

I haven't had my dash off to know how thick they are but....
Acrylic Sheets - Transparent Colors : TAP Plastics
Could you use those, cut to size, and paint the area black to get the right "signal" you want? Just a thought

 

They're not transparent, you would need to darken them somehow so they're not too bright. I gave away my spare bezel already, but there's lots in the jy.

 

That's not a bad idea...those sheets are thicker than what came with the truck (they're thin - maybe the thickness of a playing card?), but there's no reason I can think of that they couldn't go in there. The most difficult part would be neatly blacking out the right parts to get the desired image, I'd think.

 

It's much more practical to replicate the window graphic on a printer, then just transfer it to the material.
