when i mounted my gages and equalizer i didn't want to drill holes in the bottom of my dash bezel. a guy told me to use the belt clips from a tape measure. i bought some cheap 25' tape measures and removed the clips. i mounted the clips to the gage and EQ brackets then just slid them on the bottom of my dash. works great.

not a very good pic but you get the idea.

Actually its a new one on me, and I think a pretty good one.

Just sad I already made the holes. :(

Neat tip.
Do they ever move/loosen? - railroad tracks?

i've put 2500 mies on the car since the resto. i just went out and checked them, they haven't moved at all. Scott

thanks for the feedback... I'd like to see a close up pic when you have free time for that. Sounds like a neat idea I might try next guage swap...

Thats a good idea thanks for the info.

Yep, thanks for sharing. Good tip there ...

Not bad at all, looks pretty clean even.

i would probably use black screws and nuts or paint these black so the hardware is not quite as noticeable.

that's a great idea and guess what.....I am just getting ready to do the guages in my cuda project after Christmas. I am going to have to give that some thought.
