Looking for something other than stock for your FSJ’s gauge cluster? Our aluminum overlays for 1973–1985 Full Size Jeeps are sold as plain, unfinished blanks that you can finish your way—paint, powder coat, vinyl wrap, brushed, polished, or add your own one-off decals. These overlays let you achieve a flawless front surface without fighting the tight corners on the factory plastic housing.
Important Note (Please Read)
JeepRecyclers.com does not customize or finish these overlays.
We ship plain aluminum overlays only. All finishing (color, sheen, graphics, decals) is done by you or your shop.
Why Use an Overlay Instead of Painting the Housing?
Painting the face of the stock housing is tedious and rarely perfect. By finishing an overlay off the cluster, you get:
- Even coverage & smooth flow with fewer flaws
- Any color & finish (matte, satin, gloss, brushed/polished)
- Freedom to add graphics or decals for a one-of-one interior

Quick Install Overview
- Finish the overlay first. Prep, paint/powder/vinyl off the cluster for best results.
- Mock fit on your cluster to confirm alignment and clearances.
- Install per your normal cluster routine, checking that edges don’t rub the needles. ? Pro Tip: For best adhesion, we recommend applying the overlay to your ABS cluster using J-B Weld Clear Epoxy – strong, clean, and transparent.
- Final inspect under interior lighting for even sheen and clean edges.
