Aftermarket gauges

[77roadrunner440]

Does anyone know what size aftermarket gauges would fit in the Diplomat and 5th Ave style Instrument panel?

I have no clue but that would be a neat idea...or you could get some polished aluminum stock and make a new bezel with new gauges in it.

To replace the speedo and gas gauge? I can't remember off the top of my head. I do remember that one size will fit, as I've already researched this route. But if you're looking for a gauge to fill the smaller holes you'll need to modify. The molded in "bezels" have an opening of 1 7/8". The smallest gauge you can get is 2 1/16".

Equus makes a 2" guage. Available at O'Reilly Auto Parts. They work good for me in my Duster.

Those are actually the gauges I've been looking at for my M.

Tachometer and Speedometer

I'm trying to do the same thing. I have the 3 3/8 Equus speedo and tach they fit the opening perfectly. But they will take some effort to fab. As for the other gauges, their 2 inch gauge is really a 2 1/16. The 2" is the hole size. I'm having to do some serious cutting and grinding to try to make them work. and I'm still not there yet.
