That's a tough one.
I've rebuilt a few of the combo gauges using lenses I found scavenging from other gauges. I've seen versions where just appropriately colored lenses are glued across the back of the gauge face - giving you the correct coloring but not the correct lens appearance. Looks pretty good, though. You can find colored acrylic sheets/rounds on ebay or amazon. @burton73 and I talked a lot about this - to the point where he hand poured me some (that's his field) that I ended up hand-finishing and they look pretty good - but labor intensive for sure. maybe he'll chime in here. |

May have some I can check Monday when I'm back in. Pretty sure I do. If so, they're yours as I think I had a bunch.

And that "yellow" one is supposed to be white and is a dummy with no backlight. I also believe it's shallower than the red and green as it doesn't fit into a rubber light tube - it's just taped to the back of the gauge face.

Sorry I just trashed the small test mold I made for this. No Idea where you can get them as a stock piece Best Bob B |

I'll head out to the barn tomorrow again. I shuffled some parts, pretty sure I do, but will confirm tomorrow.
