Is it the instrument cluster panel? I am interested in one for my 69. Is it the same as the one NPD has in there catalog?

I was thinking of getting one of these too. I just didn't want to be their guinea pig. The number 1 complait I have heard though, is that they are too thin and flimsy. I haven't seen them in person. Can anyone else provide some first hand experience?

IS this the dash bezel or the guage carrier. I have installed the new dash bezel(plastic outer) on my 69 and was very impressed by the fit. Got mine from Ground Up.

We have no opinions on them, as we don't have one, and have not seen one.

I just put in a Covans dash in my 65 Camino, Its looks great has a great fit but you better do like i did and reinforce the back with plexiglass or some something sturdy. Without it your gauges will bounce all over the place. Nice look but very flimsy. For what i paid i expected better.
