Default white face gauges???

Is there anywhere I can look to find the white gauges for a 1981. If not the gauges, maybe the overlayment to make them look white face. thanks, :flag

You could do it yourself like the camaro guy - that might even be a very nice solution - or you could replace the guages with aftermarket units like I did.



I even have instructions if you want a copy

I wouldn't mind a copy of those instructions if your still offering. That is going to be a mod of mine in the future and I'm gonna need em when that time comes. Great job on you install and where did you get that smooth console cover from?

KrAzYSnIpEr & Armstrong - you've got mail..as to the woodgrain cover - they were ordered through Mid America if memory serves...You will need something like it for a successful install...

I've had a number of requests for the instructions for the install of the Autometer Phantom gauges so I've put the zip file containing the instructions up on my web space. you can get it at...
http://earchitect.50megs.com/corvette/install.zip

this is a better collection of instructions as it has been reformatted to a word document and included pdf files of the gauges i used from the manufacturer.

I would love a set of these instructions also. This is a great alternative to the cost of the gauges. We plan to install white face on the ctr console, but would love an alternative for the speedo and tach.
