Congrats! I know choosing aftermarket gauges is one of the hardest decisions youll have to make because i took that leap about a month ago. Youll have to post some pics when you get them installed. I LOVE aftermarket clusters on these trucks.

By the way....
"DO NOT" !!!!! hook your Fuel gauge to the wire that goes to the factory one.... You'll blow your Autometer gauge out !!!!!!!! either run a complete new wire directly from the sending unit at the tank, or bypass the circuit at the firewall junction box. |

By chance, does anyone have pics of an all-aftermarket guage install in both the bezel and a Just Dashes full-coverage dash with the three-guage built-in pod? Bling bling.

And you will have to carefully cut the turn signal indicator "Arrows" out of the bezel back plate If you want to maintain the Arrow look. ( Cut them round like the cardboard) and I siliconed them to the round cardboard pieces that "Guide" the light to the front of the Bezel.. There is no other article that I know of besides my own. I stole this idea from Thor 50 who used to be a regular here.. And he didn't document anything when he did his. Like I typed, If you have any Questions let me know.
