Hey guys just looking for some ideas/advice, im replacing my gauge cluster with a set of Cobalt gauges but i want to keep all the warning lights as well as blinker and handbrake lights and keep it looking as factory as possible. Iv pulled the cluster box out and have noticed all the globes are built into the box. Anyway im looking for ideas as to how to get it all to work together, the new gauges with the warning lights and odometer.

what if you keep the original box. make up a new face plate (the black surround) cut the wholes out for the gauges and drill out holes for the warning lights. just removing the motors, needles for the fuel, temp, speedo, rev's.???

Thats basically what im wanting to do im just not sure if i cut the box to make room for the back of the gauges wether or not it will stuff the whole thing up.
