Oh my goodness.... I had completely forgotten about this thread. Yes, Motorwiz, I just pulled the bezel off the case. It is a light press fit.
Here's a shot of the cleaned up gauge on my shop wall. I mounted it on a bit of mahogany I found in my wood pile. I moved the compressor out to the backshop so I don't have to listen to it. I piped it back into the workshop with copper, and now I can monitor the pressure right where I use the air.
