Aluminum bezel 2 5/8 guages question
« on: September 05, 2014, 12:44:18 pm »
I ordered the aluminum bezel and am going to do the 2 5/8 gauges flush mounted in it. 

How much do I have to expand the holes in the aluminum?  Just looking for an estimate.  I don't have the bezel or gauges yet to measure.

Like the one Chris sells on the store here.  The holes are about 2 1/2"

How much you need to do depends on the size of the gauges you plan to mount..
