mustang needles anyone??

had an old foxbody cluster lying around, and i really always hated the big orange needles on square bodies, and i havent done anything to the truck in a long time, so i decided to try something, and they were pretty much a straightforward switch, granted, no one will probably ever notice if i dont mention it, but i like it

Re: mustang needles anyone??

You may want to have the speedo checked for accuracy.......
