The fuel gauge is the only one that needs to be "converted" . That can easily be fixed with a resistor behind the gauge , as supplied by Jim Carter and others .
Dont know about refacing decals , I think the advertisers also stock them too.

there is a place called the speedometer shop that I think is what you are talking about. Do refacing, convert all to 12V electrical guages if ypu want, calibtate sppedometer to specs you give them and optionally on yours, can put a small tach in middle of guages. web page try this
