They DO look nice, but....
Maybe it's just all the simulated 'burlwood' and the deep black guage 'sockets'; but I'm just not feeling the white faces set in that panel. The other thing I noticed is that your lens assembly is indeed quite hazy.... maybe a replacement? Another idea I'm kicking around is trying one of the "plastic headlight lens renewal" products. I used one on my F150 headlights and the results were great.
One thing I've noticed is that my old(er) eyes are starting to appreciate the bright orange guage needles, as opposed to white needles on a black background.. Whether I send my sheckels to Bob or try my own hand by replacing the ammeter with an aftermarket voltmeter in the orig housing; ALL those needles will have an appointment with a fine brush and a bottle of Testors orange model paint before I'm done. Of course, my abilities in 'graphic arts' are only slightly better than my ability to speak Swahili (or Spanish or French, for that matter); so I'm thinking Bob will get my ammeter core and my money, if only to get his Voltmeter overlay.
