The bezels have arrived!

The Garage Diaries is now selling 3D printed LHD TE/KE gauge cluster bezels!

The bezels have arrived!
3D printed ASA bezels for LHD 80-81 TE/KEs. Trying to make Kiichiro Toyoda proud.

Following up on my last post where I shared my intention to sell 3D printed gauge cluster bezels for 80-81 TE72s & KE70s the time has now come when I'm ready to open them up for purchase to everyone. You can pick one up for yourself on my shop page or directly here.

All clusters are printed in PolyLite ASA to ensure superior strength and temperature characteristics. Hex color codes come directly from PolyLite. I tried to provide representative examples of what each version looks like as-printed and in situ.

Final version of the original bezel style in Jet Black installed in my own car.

If you order the 3 Gauge style or Single DIN radio style you will of course get a full bezel. I chose to only print the most important parts of these bezels for my product photos in order to save filament. The 3 gauge version is designed to fit standard 52mm gauges. However, depending on the specific gauges you select, you may have to modify the rear of the bezel or the underlying dashboard structure to fit.

Similarly, the single DIN radio version is designed to fit a standard single DIN radio (shocking, I know), but depending on your radio depth you may need to trim the stock underlying structure.

Finally, someone requested I offer a completely blank version of the bezel, with no cutout for the stock instrument cluster. Consider this version if you want to cut your own holes for your own gauges.

I know its only a render but you can imagine what this would look like printed.

As a new product there may be opportunities for improvement. If you order one and you want to provide feedback, please do. The beauty of this kind of product is that it can be quickly and easily iterated on. Additionally, if there's another part that you may be interested in, please get in touch.

Buying a bezel (or anything from my shop) helps me me keep making cool stuff and buying car parts, so please you know what to do...
