AfterMarket Spedo & Fuel Gage???

[Burt4x4]

Along with my FI454 I'm gonna do an updated Gage Cluster.
Like This one Greg72 did:

I hope you don't mind me stealing your pic Greg? /forums/images/graemlins/whistling.gif

Anyway I am in the process of installing the gages like Greg did and I started wondering if anyone has ever replaced the Speedo and or Fuel gage.
If so part #s? Pics? Info?
The stock ones I have will work they are just faded and I'm thinking(ouch) of replacing them..... /forums/images/graemlins/ears.gif

I plan to do the same thing:

Big autometer speedo and tachometer in place of the fuel and speedo.

Then add a smaller fuel gauage.

 

[ntaj*ep]

how 'bout this Bert?

 

[grendel]

Yep, that's my plan.

I wonder what I can find that will fit in the center hole?

 

[ntaj*ep]

Auto meter has 3-3/4" gauges that fit perfect in that hole.

 

[Burt4x4]

Hey that looks good /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif
I have a tach mounted in the center hole already.
I think I'm gonna wait on thoes two gages for now...I don't have any $$ left anyway /forums/images/graemlins/pimp1.gif
Thanks for the pic!

What fuel guage did you use?

 

[Burt4x4]

I'm going to keep the factory one for now. It still works and I like the tach in the center. The biggest fuel gage AutoMeter has is still under 3", 2 5/8 or whatever it was..

I'll have to find something to fill that hole.

Burt, I think you have seen the gauge setup I will be using in my K20, but if not, here it is. Course, if the K20 never comes back from the body shop, this will make a fine paper weight /forums/images/graemlins/doah.gif

 

[Burt4x4]

That is nice!
I like the clock /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif

[grendel]

I went with Speedo, Tach, fuel, oil pressure, water temp, battery and tranny temp.

 

[Burt4x4]

Ok got it done last night.
I went
Speedo/Tach/Fuel
Oil Press/Oil temp/Water Temp/Volts
I replaced all the lights with twist in sockets from AutoMeter and also all the lights will glow GREEN
I need to find a master plug so I can easliy diconnet the cluster from the dash /forums/images/graemlins/waytogo.gif /forums/images/graemlins/peace.gif

 

[ntaj*ep]

I used two weather pak style connectors I got from the hot rod shop here. /forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

 

[Burt4x4]

Cool, I got my whole cluster wired up. Al I need now is the master connector.

[grendel]

Get one for me, when you find 'em!

 

[Burt4x4]

I just spent the last hr in google looking.
Two types
the weather pack connectors look like this

and the Block connectors look like this

Now just finding a local place to buy them so I don't have to wait or pay shipping......

I'm going to Home Depot at lunch to see if they have someting I can fab up....???????

 

[Yukon Jack]

I would hit your local Radio Shack. They should have something you can use for that under the dash connection.
