Title: 1967 standard and GT Dash spacers
Post by: Tiny on January 04, 2024, 04:17:54 pm

Hi all, as indicated in the attched images, do you know where you can purchase the instrument cluster spacers as indicated in the attached images.  Probably cant buy them but do you know anywhere they can be sourced.

I note the GT dash hare different compared to the standard dash

Thanks

They are not a spacer. They are a tube that stops the light output from the indicator and warning lights from bleeding into the dash illumination area. Directing it into only the lens.
A tach dash is different than a non tach dash because they have different lights.

Thanks for the clarification re spacer.  Do you know if they are available anywhere?  May have to buy an old panel (cheap)

Thanks

The original ones were a cardboad tube.
Are these of any interest?

The light tunnels are not reproduced, and were never available as a part, so no NOS.
The only option is used, or make some.
