Is there anything to support that defrost grate up top? My last one was so cracked and I don't want it to happen again

Customizing the instrument cluster! So I have this logo that I have all over my pickup, this Outlaw Edition one, it's this rodeo group my grandpa use to run so he made this decals for publicity. I love the look and sound of having an "Outlaw Edition" pickup, but I can't decide how to put it in my cluster, a small version, could I paint it? I'm not that artistic and I'm worried I'll mess it up, how should I do this? Also, which color should I have the needles? I'm liking white. Thanks again!

On my 94 the top screws that go through the defrost vent, also support the air duct behind the dash, which sets on top of the air box. So its supported. Now your dash is newer then mine, so Im not sure if yours is the same. Once everything is lined up its solid. Took me a couple try to get it perfect, but once its there, no worries.

Im not sure on that, but one option is to take the front plastic and have it engraved. I think trophy shops do that kind of thing. That way you wouldn't be messing with the cluster itself. Just an idea

Your new interior looks grate. The color is awesome in yout red truck, and you did a grate job. It looks like it would have come like that from GM , but knowing these trucks, tells you that is not an OE color. Grate job.
Thanks Kenny!
