Re: custom instrument panel
I dunno about this one in particular but it's some mismatched Autometer gauges. (Different colours) I don't know about that signal indicator, it is kinda cool. Pick some wood you like, and make a panel. Then order up a set of gauges you like (I suggest vdo, good stuff) then cut holes and do wiring. The factory cluster can be made to work and can have tachometer added to center.

Re: custom instrument panel

Re: custom instrument panel
I have a lot of gauges
Speedo, Tach, A/F ratio, trans temp, vacuum, water temp, oil pressure, fuel level, volt meter and a clock. Did you check my link above? It has those indicators

Re: custom instrument panel
With the 6.0 and 4L80 e transmission I have the scan gauge 2 also that has water temp, trans temp, volts, mas air temp, closed loop/open loop and any number of other gauges you decide which ones you want.
Plug into the computer port and reads straight off the ECU.

Re: custom instrument panel
I would LOVE to see the wiring behind all of that. I have Auto Meter gauges the PO installed but the wiring is a rat's next. I'd like to wire everything into a single connector. Any photos, links, diagrams, hieroglyphics, etc, would be appreciated!
