And I know to back mount you have to be dead on, on your hole cutting. Just a thought. Greg Mead

Some appear to be front mounted but they're actually not. What it is the bezels are cut out larger in diameter revealing more chrome as well as protruding more forwarding giving the gauges a larger appearance as in the case of GMCNUTS cluster. If the gauges were mounted from the front there would be nothing left of the black beveled part of the cluster as in the case of FUNKY61'S newly acquired gauge cluster
