Will T/A Overlays Fit Camaro? Will T/A Overlays Fit Camaro? I am getting Silver Faced Gauges and I always loved the look of the T/A gauges. I noticed that is what GMMG used on their specialty cars. I would like to get a set, but want to be sure they will fit and light up and are calibrated the same before purchase.
TIA

The bezel will fit but I am unsure about the overlays themselves, I don't believe so though. Another member Teri9672 has the bezels available, maybe she would know about the conversion. I am buying a bezel off of her for my gauges and getting them recalibrated to the 200 mph face. LawmanSS has this conversion and bezel setup in his and pics are posted in a thread here if you are interested.

Thanks. I do need a T/A Bezel as well. I will PM Teri. Thanks. I think I will just stay at 155mph. I will never see more than 130mph (someday)anyhow, and that's at the track.
Anyone else have any idea on the overlays?

I don't know if it would work or not... The overlays need the light to shine through them where the numbers are. I believe TAs have a different style (font) of numerals on the gauges, so there may be some disparity there. (possibly dim spots on parts of the numbers?) I have Camaro overlays on my car and it was hard enough to get them to line up properly and they are the same font...... It wouldn't suprise me if GMMG was using a whole TA cluster.

The overlays are almost an exact replacement. Once you put the trim peaces on they look perfect. HVAC and light switch overlays work too. Trust me, I did it all. I have a trans am and put in all camaro overlays. I believe the only thing I had to do was punch one small hole in the overlay to fit on a tab. Worked out great, now all my gauges/interior lights up bright blue.
