Just got my AM gauge console yesterday. :thumbsup: It didn't seem to fit flush down in the cutout area of the console. Did any of you that have installed this same unit have to do any trimming? Also on the backside the mounting bosses are like a two layer cake. Is the lower tier suppose to fit in the cupped out area of the console or the smaller tier? Mine seemed a little tight and didn't know if I needed to do some trimming of the cake. I don't want to force anything. :noway:

Are you talking about the little black besel that sits in the front of the 68-69 console?

Yes.

Yup, I had the same problem. I opened up the radiused areas at the edges of the console just enough to get the pod to fit flat. All was well after that.
