How did you fab the insets? I've got a '68 that I'm trying to figure out how I want to do the dash. I fabbed inserts for my '70 Chevelle and am really happy with the results, but it was a LOT of work. I'm not overly impressed with the quality of the Covan's inserts, so I'm trying to see what my options are. If you could (when convenient) provide more pictures it'd be greatly appreciated. Did you design the panel sections yourself? And if so, would you be willing to share the desin of those?
Thanks.

I got the idea from a member at Team Chevelle(TC is his username). Used the the bezel of the dash, removed the lens, removed stock gauges from cluster, opened stock metal gauge pod to fit the gauges9made it a tad smaller so gauges would fit snug. I will try and post the link with pics.

I just noticed you mentioned 68. I think 68 and 69 might have a different dash setup.

Do you have any more pics of how you installed the gauges in the console?
Looks like you got them in there nice and clean.
Thanks.
