Title: Center Gauge Cluster Sizes
Post by: CaliEagle97 on January 15, 2025, 01:45:58 PM
Morning, birds.

I'm hoping to get new gauges to use in one of the stock shifter/cluster unit. Does anybody have one to measure, or know the OD of the gauge pods that were used? I pulled a cluster out of an Eagle sedan out of a junkyard, but I don't have it with me to take the measurements myself. :amc:

Not sure this'll go through or not.  OT computer literate & always have trouble posting pics. here. I had a guy bend up a "custom" panel for mine & install Moon® gauges in mine. I didn't do the vac. gauge, I just went alt., oil, & water.

If you're looking to install aftermarket units; it'll be 2" gauges.

The original gauge cluster isn't really gauges, but a panel with gauges set behind the face of the floor console.  The rims around the opening and the plastic lenses will need to be removed to accommodate after market gauges.  But after you do that it will look a lot like the originals.

Good luck!
