It takes a lot of work and time to get the dash out and put it back in. At least on an 80'

To get the center dash out, pull the right side panel first and it comes out easy.

I would only want to do it to the center gauge in a 75. i also alreday have the dash out because i am recovering it in black. The main reason for this idea is because my clock and gas gauge are bad and by time i had them rebuil i could just buy a new autometer.

i've seen people use the 2 1/16" gauges and they had to modify the holes alittle, but fit and installation was no problem. I'm not sure how easy it would be install a matching speedo and tach??
