[QUOTE="gckless, post: 8259756, member: 635756"] More work on the meter panel. Threw some bondo on the bottom for strength so I could stretch the cloth without worrying: [URL="http://s723.photobucket.com/user/gckless/media/1999%20Chevrolet%20Blazer/18D1518B-2CC0-4FBC-91C5-2EB5F14CABA4_zpsqtf4wp21.jpg.html"][IMG]http://i723.photobucket.com/albums/ww236/gckless/1999%20Chevrolet%20Blazer/18D1518B-2CC0-4FBC-91C5-2EB5F14CABA4_zpsqtf4wp21.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Then wrapped the thing with some shammy cloth I had laying around. It was soft cotton not microfiber. Used hot glue to tack it. Not perfect, but good enough to where I can fix with Bondo.
