I am about to replace my original speedometer etc. with a new dash insert and gauges from Classic Instruments. Any suggestions on where to buy the insert. I've seen the ones manufactured by Boese Engineering, but am looking for other choices.

You can also do an E Bay search for " Billet Aluminum " inserts - there seem to be a few different versions around.

I like the ones above if you go with a 3 gauge setup. I bought Dolphin, like the looks of these slightly better if they had black needles instead of red.
