They look great! So many things happening at once but, we'll have these back installed once we get the car back from the wiring / electrical shop.
Here's some before and after pics:

Those guys are unmatched for gauge rebuilding. Used them a few times.

They look beautiful!

Can I ask -- do they roll form the bezels so that they look OEM after the restoration? I would assume they do but honestly I've never seen how they handle the back side.

Not that car, unfortunately. These go into the 75 which is being put back together at the moment.

@Superhawk996 - Here's what the back looks like. Not sure how well you'll be able to see it but yes, it looks like it.

@Superhawk996 you're welcome.
They do really look nice. I'm excited to have them and can't wait to put them back in with the new dash face. They're going to look really good in there.
