Look for F600 trucks. The instrument clusters are stamped steel, can be found chrome or painted, round gauges and, best of all, bolt right in. The layout is rather nice, too. Some wire modification needs to be done. I have been told that the wiring color code is the same but mine appears to be different. I am not sure what year mine came from but with the wiring schematics from this website I am adapting it.
