65 speedometer and tach faces...buying new??

[fredd65]

just finishing up my 65 and have to do the guage cluster...the faces of the speedometer and tach are a little faded, mostly just the orange on the redline...anyone know a good place to buy new ones or can my old ones be freshened up?...how good will the replacements look?....also, i might need to get the speedometer rebuilt...who would you have rebuild or is there a kit?...it was making some crazy noises and bouncing all over before the needle fell off...thanks for any help
damn, that car is fun to drive!!!!

I've found that zip products and Ecklers both list new faces.

Here is a picture of a midline tach at Ecklers:

And the link to zip products:
http://www.zip-products.com/Corvette_Early/search_results.asp?Gift=false&find%5Fspec=face%2056%2D82&searchtype=AND&mscssid=F00EB3FA59704C54A828D24E9E73F4F1&position=18

Both sites have them at about $30 each.

I'm debating on buying new faces or just trying to freshen mine up.
