Instrument bezels

#1 Post by StephenL »

HI, I want to replace all the bezels on my guages, which i thought would be easy, but I'm really struggling to find a supplier. I would have expected this to be quite a common want>?

Anyhow, I'm after the usal 52mm, as well as a speedo (around100mm) and a clock that comes in about 60mm. These are known as "half V shape" and I want teh standard black.

Can anyone help with a supplier? I once had a flier from a guy who had a stand at Beaulieu but it got lost in a house move :-(

Could you not strip down the gauge, rub down the bezel and repaint yourself?

I'd rather not because they have little tabs that have to be pulled back to separeate them from the instrument which once you do it a few times ruins them. I've got from holden (thanks for the tip) all the bezels i need for my TVR and Scimitar except one odd sized one which I will have to repaint best I can. Not cheap;it's easy to run up a £100+ bill for a few bits of bent tin as I have learnt :( :shock:

Typically, I had this turn up in my inbox yesterday from AES! Should have what you need
