Hello. I'm new to the forum and I can't seem to find a place that sells replacement glass for both the speedometer and tachometer. Anyone have any sources? Much appreciation!

Try a glass shop. I needed the glass replaced on these as the original was cracked. I took the broken one to a local glass shop and they duplicated it perfectly. The original glass was nothing special and was near identical to 3mil non-glare picture frame glass. They even managed to drill the hole for the trip meter. Worth a try.
Hadn't noticed that on the round instruments. In a pinch would flat work or might it contact the needles?

One of these might work:

I used one in a clock, and it looks fine.

That's what I did, took my cover down to a glass shop, he took the old plexiglass and did an outline on the new glass, cut it to shape and I sealed it in. looks great and won't fade. Did make the instrument cluster a bit heavier, though didn't cause any problems.
