68 corvette bezel
I have a 68 with the wiper override switch and want to replace the instrument bezel. Can anyone explain the difference between the bezel w/o override and the one with override?

I have a new retro stereo to install, but the current bezel is for a CD player, which doesn't fit the retro type stereo (needs the **** holes). I am hoping the bezel is not too difficult to remove and replace. And yes, they are expensive!

The original 68 non wiper override bezel just had a slightly raised block of metal there. How many of you know that I think that was going to be the location of the low fuel tell-tale. I have one of them in my parts collection, that I bought over the counter.
I think that the low fuel light is mentioned in the first version of the 68 sales brochure, along with the never production applied plastic gas tank. Lou.
