<VV> FW: Re: dash measurements

[sharpiebandit06 at bellsouth.net]

That helps out a lot. I got an old corsa dash and cleaned it up to put into my Monza, but only one guage truly works and that's the fuel. I don't want to mess with repairing the gauges myself and having them restored is expensive and for the same price I could have all new autometer gauges put in with a little bit of modifications. currently my dash is installed in the car and I didn't feel like taking it out jsut to measure the gauges, so I thought someone might have some answers. I'll be replacing the gauges with a new: tach, speedo, oil pressure, oil temp, volts, fuel, 2 cylinder head temps, and a trans temp. So obviously by that measurement I have plenty of cutting room in the dash area. Thanks.

Charles

Monza and Corsa speedos are the same size. I have a defunct Corsa clock 
here and the face measures between 1 7/8 to 2" depending on where I measure 
it. Across the back, it is 1 3/4" not including the lip portion. The lip 
is 2 1/4". Does this help?
