I have a SunPro mini in the clock hole of my 62.  Couple swipes with a
file and it went right in.

George, did you have to fabricate mounting apparatus?

It looks like it would fill the little hole just fine.  I had to file
the larger holes to accommodate the '63 gauge clusters but that was
minor work.

I don't even use a mounting bracket.  The housing is plastic and I
"pressed" it in the hole after (like I said) a few swipes with a
file.  Didn't take much and the thing fits so tight I hope it lasts
for a long time..  Mine has a black plastic bezel and doesn't match
anything but the price was right.  It was in a discount bin at the
local FLAPS; opened box but not out of the plastic.  Been in there now
for about six or so years.  I can send you a pic if you want.

Sounds good George.

I'll try to pick up the chrome version in the next couple of weeks or
so.  I hope to have the T-Cab "freshened" by the end of next month for eBay.

I don't know that anything will fit right in... don't have a dash
handy to measure the hole and/or search.  When I had my car I just had
an old 60's Sun tach strapped to the column.
