Thats super spiffy. How hard was the install?

The only tough part, was removing the headlight switch knob. After that, it was a breeze.

What was the problem involved with the headlight switch knob.

buy a Chilton/Haynes manual and you'll find out, best $10-15 you'll ever spend

So do the gauges in this cluster work any better than the factory idiot gauges? Or does it just look better?

 

[donsbad68]

Im with jeffnoel are the sweeps tighter and more acurate?

All the gauges work exactly the same way. You are just getting the white faces, with full back illumination, and the famous "AutoMeter" name branded all over them.

How come one guy's gauges are a teal-ish color while the other is green? I thought the lunar series are green, is this just a difference in camera or can you change the color?

You guys are talking about tighter sweeps and accuracy....the gauges in these cars are fakes anyway. I had no amps and only 10 volts coming off my battery, and the needle still sat in the middle when the key was put in run. The car wouldn't even run by itself once it was jumped. A new battery, and all was good. The gauge still read in the middle. I bought another oil pressure gauge, and hooked up the sender, etc. It moves all the over place from idle to redline. The stock one never leaves the middle. The signal to it is not in psi, but go and no-go. Just like a warning light. On the engine we destroyed with nitrous, well, it had no oil pressure, and the gauge still had a reading. The temp gauge may actually do something. I know the middle is supposed to be 82-83*C. The factory oil and volts are just warning lights with needles even then I question if they do that.

And I saw those Simco gauges for sale on eBay for a hundred bucks cheaper. I don't like the logo's, but somebody here might. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/99-0...012QQitemZ220085221645QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW
