Default old style vdo gauges

Has anyone had any luck with redoing or replacing the tacks and speedo on their older formulas. My tacks looks like crap. 1999 330 ss

I was able to get a temp gauge from Great Lakes Skipper/eBay . . . if you are looking for a straight replacement. Much of that stuff is no longer available. So, a complete gauge upgrade might become a necessity.

Try the link below. The vanguard line has been discontinued for several years but these guys show on the web site to have tacks without the hour meter

I redid my 1997 312 with all new Livorsi gauges and carbon fiber dash panels.. I kept the others that we're stock, not sue if there the same or not. But they looked fine... There the ones that feed up from behind the panel with no rim...
