Gauge Refacing

I'm looking for new faces for my gauges. i'd like to have some stickers that stuck on, or have them be a plastic, vellum type paper that i can glue on to the existing gauges.

I have the SE Cluster. it has the 120 speedo and i just got the tach from www.chargerspecialties.com and then it has the fule, alt , temp, and oil on the righ side

is there a place that sells new faces, or am i stuck with cleaning the ones i have. i've been thinking of making my own faces. i'm a draftsmen for an engineerinf firm and i have access to some nice quality printers. and i draw the gauges in autocad... but that will take some time.

anyone got any ideas?

I got the one from durango, not very happy. The speedo overlay changed the mph. What was 60 is now 70 and the highbeam light cut-out went from vertical to horizontal(might have that backwards). I was thinking of taking the entire gauge assembly to the guys that made my "Charger" and "440SE" decals. Between the gauges right in front of the them and a cad program I don't see why they can't make a set for the same price as the other guys.

I used the PCG ones and they worked perfect!  Easy to install and impossible to tell when in.

For the record. I just got off the phone with PCG; Due to the overwhelming positive comments made I had to place my order with them for my new faces. I have to add, the gentleman that answered the phone was friendly, courteous, and very helpful. I asked if he also sold the wire set for the tic toc tac, even though he didn't, he offered to send me a wiring diagram and gave me the phone number of the place that does sell them.

Then am I typing this? Because I have to commend good customer service when I see it!

Happy 30th year PCG :thumbs:

71 and I think 72 also have the vertical cut out and is a red signal and 73/74 are horizontal ones and they are blue signal...

Maybe the change was at the same time speedos were changed from 150 to 120 miles

I'm half way with the cluster. I figured with everything apart. I would clean the whole unit and take the opportunity to install my Tic Toc Tac :D :D :D
