looks ok to me I wonder if my column shift will be in the way?

Here's one I machined to hold a Sun Super Mini II tach.

I have a floor shifter now but I believe the column still moves without interference from the tach.

if you place the tach on the column like that, the reflection in the windshield will be right in your line of sight when you cruise at night.

i'll second that ... i usely dim my dash light to about nothing... but i definetly notice that downside ... i have a sunpro as well .. i took out the light bulb and painted it with a green sharpy marker and it almost perfectly matchs the stock green color ... im not a huge fan of super bright dash lights

i'll get some pics

71-longbed · 09-20-2005, 02:43 PM

heres another redneck mod ... zip tie's and all

383 Stroker · 09-20-2005, 03:40 PM

Here's mine.

kelsfine69 · 09-20-2005, 07:42 PM

Heres mine "Old School". PO installed a Smith tack and I added a pro-lite. I dont think that I could ever punch holes in a dash pad, but he did, so untill it cracks and I have to replace it ....there it stays.

I was going to tell you to pm 68haywagon, but he beat me to it. Nice, Mike!

dion · 09-20-2005, 09:16 PM

Longhorn Man · 09-20-2005, 09:25 PM
