redid my gauge setup
well while debubaing my electrical system I rewired my gauges, used a ATX extention cable to use as a conecter
      worked out pretty good and now it will be easier to pull when I need to :-) and I won't have to remember what wire goes where, and the conecter has plenty of room for expansion I also doubled out on the power and grounds to help power handleing

What's an atx cable? Also, could you use the sockets from the sidemarkers to fit the dash light outlets? You could get rid of that darned printed circuit board if it works.
Looks good.

I knew someone else would think of this.
 I haven't had to rewire my dash but I did install a tach in the center hole of the dash. I used a molex connector for it. BTW ATX plug is the power wire for a PC that has the atx form factor. A molex conector is the 4 prong plug that plugs into hard drives and cdrom drives.
