Default Fixing gagues on 85

Does anyone know a reasonably priced place to send my instrument panel in to get fixed. The tach is cracked and can only read from a bout 2500 and up. My ist. fuel milage gague doesn't show much and my fuel level gague has bars missing and ones half there. I know these things are pricy, so help me out fellas.

You are going to have to shop around. All the major corvette supply catalogs provide instrument cluster repairs. But it sounds like you have two bad LCD panels- they dont take broken LCD's as cores. Your repair is likely to be higher than average. You might want to check ebay for a good cluster or for repairs. I sent mine in and had to fix some minor issues after I got it back. I'm reluctant to say where because I can't honestly recommend them to anybody. I'm sure someone will chime in with a place they are happy with. It will not be cheap. Good luck.
