Re: help dash wiring

Are trying to put a full gauge dash into a idiot light dash? That would be the most common mistake...Randy

Re: help dash wiring

This is a really fun task ( all joking aside) I have the correct wiring diagram for what you need, If I can get lucky enough I will scan it tonight and then I can email it or post a pic of it for you. Send me a PM to remind me and I will get you the diagram which will show you which wires to hook up to where when doing this swap from dummy lights to guages.
