You will have to "hack everything up" with any aftermarket gauges you use. Best to figure out how to install C3 gauges (of similar design). BTW, the riveted dial face is not really a significant issue. When I worked on my ammeter, I used a Dremel to grind the backside of the rivets so I could remove the dial face. To reinstall it, I just inserted the remaining [front] portion of the rivet back in its hole and put a dab of 2-part JB Weld epoxy on the reverse side to hold it all together. Fixed the ammeter and it's still doing fine after almost 10 years. Can't tell any difference from the front. I didn't think riveting the face back on was worth the risk of doing damage during the riveting process.
