Bezel and glass replacement on gauges
I am in the process of tidying up my newly acquired 930. 1980 car that has sat for some time and needs TLC. The dials had surface rust all round the bezels, these are now off and I had intended blasting these lightly and having them professionally sprayed.
The easier option would be to source new replacements. Seems to be very difficult.
Has anyone came across a source?
Thanks
Tom

You might try giving North Hollywood Speedometer or Palo Alto Speedometer a call. No affiliation, both advertise in Panorama and have have been around for a while. Might well have the experience to help you with your decision to refurbish your gauges or find new bezels/glass.

I had them (Palo Alto) restore my gauges. The PO had put ugly white faces on them that wouldn't come off even with my (not so) delicate touch. Very nice craftsmanship. I think it was around 800 for the set.
