You mean Bare Metal Foil right? I never thought of using this on plastic bezels but it should work and look pretty good. I would just be concerned how durable it would be over time. I used to use this stuff on models with great success although durability was not an issue as the models dont get...

Not shure what brand but it's the right price!

So I'm cutting and buffing my new paint and here comes my neighbor from across the street. Compliments my paint and I show him the difference between the fresh paint and the cut and buffed. Next thing you know we are talking about sound deadner and he says he will be right back. He brings over 2...

I used SEM Hot Rod Black on my dash and door panels. It came in a 2 part kit you have to mix. You may be able to get it pre mixed in rattle cans. They make SEM Trim Black in rattle cans, similar stuff. Just clean it well whatever paint you use or you will get fish eyes due to years of Armour All...

Are you asking about re-covering the dash pad with a cap or recovering the dash frame without the pad? I have recovered my dash pad and it came out decent. You can get them from several different companies but I am pretty sure they are all from the same manufactur Accu-Form. Just look for the...

Soldering each wire to the board and then an aftermarket connector was going to be my next move had this not worked, so far its holding up well.

I thought of that too but I was afraid of getting too much solder in play as I was worried it would flood the board and cause a short. Flux really helps keep the solder were you want it.

I just installed the cluster back in tonight and everything seems to work better than I can remember it, except for the headlight switch. The dimmer spring came apart and I put it back in place but it is a little touchey, probablly need to grab a replacement sometime. As for the guages, the fuel...

I broke all of the pins off on the drivers side circuit board while pulling my instrument cluster on my 1970 Dart Swinger. This seems like a common problem as this is a poor design at best. Fourtunately you can get aftermarket boards (at about $100 each), or used somewhat cheaper. I opted to fix...

I found the circuit boards for about $100 each or $160 for a pair...just another dang expense. Still may attempt a repair before I drop a hudo.

Does anybody make the boards or am I going to have to scour the land looking for a used one? I have been looking for the correct heater / ac control for this car for about 5 years, got one off a valliant in there for quite awhile now and it works but is not even close to being correct.

Now you got me thinking, maybe I can run screws through the back and solder as well. Or find a pin that is the same size pre-drill the circuit board with a pin vise and run it through the back. Might be stronger than original.

Well...It's out anyway. I broke off the 5 pins on the drivers side that plug into the harness. Only found 4 of them. Anybody have any luck soldering these back on? I think they broke off before I realised that they needed to be unplugged as when I reached back to unplug it it was already broke...

My Haynes manual is not much help.

Ok, I will try again this evening. I didnt have anything in the back unhooked but I did drop the colum. I guess the speedo cable and wires have to come loose. Was hoping to avoid that, really not looking forward to hooking them back up. Speedo isnt working right now, (have the ticket to prove...

Trying to remove the guage cluster from my 70 dart swinger. It is the non rallye type, 0-120 mph, etc. Have all the screws on the front removed and can get it almost all the way out by tilting the top forward but the bottom of the cluster in the back will not clear the metal dash frame on the...
