Aww Lockdoc, you know the answer!!!

Hdixon, the gauges are mounted to 1 of 2 separate rounded-edge rectangular panels. Those panels are mounted to a larger tin that the speedometer, fuel gauge, and/or tachometer mount to. The Amp gauge is connected using a printed circuit board (PCB).The oil gauge is connected to the engine via a copper (or aftermarket plastic) tube, which attaches to an engine oil feed passage (next to the distributor on V8s). The water temp is also connected to the PCB.

I'll try to find some pictures.

Yeah, I know, I moved his thread from the Suburbans & Panels forum to here and I wanted to get it back to the top. We were leaving to go out for pizza & a movie so I didn't have time to answer it. Thanks for saving me guys...
