I'm replacing the plastic fuel/tach/speedo lenses on my '74. Any thoughts on whether to go glass or stay with plastic?? Also, anybody on the board selling new replacements??

QUOTE(Dr Evil @ Aug 18 2008, 03:03 PM)  That is good and makes it easier. What about Lexan? I also read about a plastic called optium. This is a museum grade plastic and expensive. |
