This makes me want to get a white gauge cluster for my white 2005 Silverado even more! I’m not a good enough at soldering to do this myself. I will be buying a custom SS one online. But, again thanks for your video that shows me how much work goes into it. I’m now even more okay with spending the money to get that great look for my white 2005 base model Silverado. I’ve already bought the aluminum wheels and the fold down console seat. There’s even more to come after the gauge cluster. I’m doing a “mail-order makeover” to my late grandpa’s farm truck. Thanks again for the great video.
