Thanks for all the help with this project guys. Injuneer & shoebox info was invalueable. So i am attaching some pics. Special note, I added some bronze spacers behind the gauges makes them stand out a bit more.

Looks really good. Glad we were able to help out.
I keep trying to decide if I want to paint the silver bezels to match the dash, so they don't look out of place.Fred

Thanks for all the nice comments. Injuneer, i would not paint the benzels, they look really hot silver. Do you remember us talking about the 12 degree angeled rings, they wouldnt work. I had a buddy of mine that is a machinest , we used the cardboard spacer that comes on the gauge, he made them out of broze, that works well. Thanks again guys.95 Trans Am, K&N CAI, LT4 knock module, Flowmaster exhuast, Grant GT steering wheel, Sony head unit w/sub, Autometer Gauges

I think I would have painted the bronze rings to match the dash????
The Eastwood Company "graphite" is a good match for my interior.... it actually looks a lot closer than in the photos (see radio blank and lighter plug), but the use of a flash to take the picture seems to make each piece of the dash show up as a slightly different shade of graphite.
