Hi,
I am in the process of changing my dash, and when I removed the gauges I noticed that each gauge had an o-ring between the dash and bezel.
Mine basically disintegrated when I removed the gauges, any idea who supplies them? I checked Rick's catalog but didn't see them.

Cheers,

Got a bunch from VicBrit some time ago . . . .
 
O rings

I bought the "square" profile O rings from Nisonger on the east coast a few years back, I bet the other instrument rebuilder Moma has them also.

orings

Randy, did those orings from VB fit ok? If so you can't beat their price.

I wanted new bezels and glass and someone that does all the gauge face refinishing for people here recommended that UK supplier.

He mentioned that there are different versions of the bezels out there, some are good and some not so much.

square rings

someone might just be able to measure or guesstimate the needed ID/OD (2", etc?) and crossections (1/16") on an actual part?

Then... Web is our friend...

Bunches of square rings...

On the fly, SS told me "use a rubber band!" Which, ain't that bad a fix if you find the right one.
 
Yup

They fit very well and are the thin version (1/32" or less ??) so not much shows but still cushions well.

I agree, the pricing is fine . someone can give the inner & outer sizing of the smaller and larger gauges. My eyes are not good enough for exact sizing.
 
Thanks guys, took me a while to find my thread. :D
I appreciate the great info, I'll measure the gauges and see what sizes I need.

Cheers,

Paul
