Just wanted to post a pic of the autometer gauges installed on my 98 GT. Took about an hour to do...not hard at all.

Did you have to hog out the area behind the gauges to get them to sit flush? Can you take a picture from the side to show how much gap there is between the gauges and pod?

Thanks

My Volt gauge gave me a bit of problems but I got it as flush as its goin to get. And I went with all black, I didnt want white gauges, thought it might clash. Thanks though, I try to keep it clean

You should've put an altimeter in there too, with you sitting as high up as you are in that thing. JK, gauges look good man, you definitely need some lowering springs though.

maybe I will be the only one to ask why you installed a vacuum and volt gauge instead of something useful like water temp and oil pressure????

dude your car looks good keep the 99 anniversary wheels and maybe put the 96-98 cobra bumper on the front and that would be it, dont *** it up with that body kit, i mean thats my opinion, i personally try to keep it stock looking, or if i change something i would put something on it ford made, like im fixing to put the 99/01 cobra bumper on my 04 mustang, it will look like it came that way

Well I ordered the cobra bumper last week since my GT bumper is cracked and for the extra $50 I bought the cobra front bumper. I like the round fog lights. Now will the wiring harness work for the cobra fogs or will I have to change to the cobra harness? I got the xenon kit for $150 shipped so I couldnt pass up on the deal, all they seem to be is lip kits...anyway thats the deal with that. I thought about going to 18's but I get compliments on the wheels all the time...

I am hearing that I should lower the car, but I dont want it that low, just want to minimize the gap in the wheel weld a little bit. Any suggestions?
