Beautiful interior!

What did you use to get the backspacing of your Brockway gauge to match the rest of the panels in the console? Or did Brockway fix this on the new version? Mine sits about 1/8" inset compared to the climate control below, but it is the earlier version.

Thanks! This was one of the last they may have made. It sits flush out the box. The clips could have a little more spring force but otherwise the colour fit and finish are excellent. Just thinking aloud you would have to space the panel out and still have the clips grab. Things that could be done:

Bond offset spacers to the stop area of the gauge frame and grind off an appropriate amount on the locking tangs on the console...so that the clips can grab..I would have to get in there and look for real...instead working in my virtual work shop:ah:

Maybe grafting the clips from the cd holder would do it

How do you like the Dgauge otherwise??
