They are pretty much the same ones that BEA is offering. Mike, at BEA is the person to talk to as you avoid any problems with international shipping. Mike is also great to deal with. I have assembled one for my 67 Barracuda and it looks unbelievable. It is not however an exact copy as you will need to remount the metal plate from your old bezel. It is not a problem, but one or two indents are changed so the plate did not mount exactly on the new one, like it did on the old OEM one. Not a big deal, no cutting or drilling required or anything like that. Certainly worth the investment and I have slid mine into the dash and everything lines up fine. I went with Autometer gauges so I cannot state that your old gauges will or will not fit as I didn't even give it a try but the dimensions measured the same if I recall.

I have owned , raced and driven A & B body Mopars since 1960. It sure would be nice if when you refer to a dealer/manufacturer you would spell out the name. Who is BEA?

I ordered mine from PG Classic, got a super deal off ebay. Similar experience as klunick mentioned, some minor shaving here and there to get everything to fit. I was not an exact duplicate of my original, but it looks fantastic.

I bought some 73-76 Duster tail light bezels from PG Classics. Looked great outta the box. Couldn't get them to lay flush against the tail panel. Got my money back and bought NOS cheaper. Keep your $375+shipping and don't bother.

PG sent me the wrong item TWICE! Cost me $70 in shipping and never got a dime of it back. Ill never buy from them again.
Why would you buy from PG when you're in Ohio, where BE&A is located? I LIVE in Canada, and it cost me LESS to have my stuff shipped up here from Ohio. That, and I had the pleasure of speaking with Mike, the owner of BE&A, great guy, hope to deal with hi again soon!
Nothing to see here. Carry on.

First off I didn't know about BE&A, I was at Mopar Nationals and found the BE&A tent when I was walking through and bought it from them.
