Mr69 Aug 14th, 05, 4:48 AM 1970 Chevelle SS dash. Can someone please verify that the small lower left hole next to the speedo on a round gauge dash is the brake light ???? Thanks, Nate Donnie1 Aug 14th, 05, 1:40 PM yes it is. dittoz Aug 15th, 05, 3:58 PM Absolutely it is... A few guys around here have some extras if you put a WTB ad in the classifieds.

Dean Aug 16th, 05, 11:13 AM "WTB ad" (want to buy) is used in place of "want ad" to keep from typing one letter, especially handy if your "A" or "N" keys don't work. :D Finally Aug 16th, 05, 11:17 AM Which is why I ?ever pl?ce ?ds, bec?use my ? a?d ? keys do?'t work. :D Steve S Aug 16th, 05, 2:09 PM I believe Dean was referring to the red brake lens which is always missing if you buy a used gauge cluster. dittoz Aug 17th, 05, 2:25 PM Nate, that "hole" is supposed to have a red lens across it. When dashes are removed and clusters taken out, the lens usually falls out or off and is lost. It's about 3/4" in diameter and says "BRAKE". If your keys work and you want to post an ad for one, that's what I was refering to. Or, you can try doing the cellophane-across-the-hole trick that some have... Mr69 Aug 18th, 05, 3:33 AM I managed to get the lense out of the sweep speedo and cut it to fit. Glued it in. Should have the new dash in place by this Sat and then I'll know how I did as far as level or straightness. Thanks for all the good tips guys. ps.....sure was a bummer to get all that stuff assembled, only to turn the dash over for a look-see and discovered that big gaping hole. aaaarrrgghh Nate | ||
