Nice! Keep is posted. Did it come with a new bezel plate since it only has one row of idiot lights? Does your car have a digital dash in it now?

 

[Catch]

Here is the dash in the car I need to trim the bezel more. Also how i cut the dash surround

 

[Catch]

Here is the cluster in the surround and the spacers I made. Yup they are made out of Bic pens

 

[jasjamz]

I have to get mine on order!!

Catch Nice Pics! Did they supply you with a plexiglass cover like this?
Does it say how to calibrate the speedo?

 

[Catch]

All you get is the cluster and the sending units. It does tell you how calibrate the speedo

 

[lhbarrett]

Why did you have to make spacers?

 

[Catch]

This is the Poston dash install--I'm no fabricator.

Looks good. I'm not a big fan of the texture of the plate surrounding the gauges but that could easily be replaced with a different piece or simply covered up. I have too much other stuff on my "parts list" to even consider buying a gauge cluster right now but that setup looks pretty good. I'll stick to going "85mph" for a few more years.

Is Poston buick the only one making dash clusters for our cars? If so does anyone have it and how well does it work?

Well I think no no noo I KNOW it's the biggest piece of S*** I bought one from POSTON paid 7 something with shipping and didn't even put in car NO WAY 20+ years dealing with these cars and I have never seen something made so cheap. I opened the box and took out in PA along 2 very well know Buick GN people and they laughed The 2 people where from 2 different company's the one was gonna install it The other guy happen to stop by to bs and could not believe this dash Matter of fact there was a car there with a Tom Houiser dash So much better

Well I wont be buying the Postons dash I guess. Think im just going to go with the FAST XFI touch screen data logger and have a plate laser cut to fit on the cover. I will have to look around for a place to do that. Im sure there are plenty of places that cut metal shapes with CAD machines. I just dont know who or where. It only has to be 6 or 7 inches wide.

Can't seem to find anyone that will make a quality GNX these days.

Ok, i'll keep that in mind. Thanx, but the link dosen't work.

I hate to say it but I'd be disappointed if I had shelled out the money for the poston's unit. Fit, finish and eye appeal seems to be lacking. If someone would reproduce the quality of the oem x's dash they would sale. They need to get rid of that texture pastic, do a better job of fitting the turn signal flashers and work on gauge placement.

btw...I won't be buying the Poston's unit either.

Wish someone would copy the AVC......
