I have noticed on a lot of 05 mustangs gt and v6 that there are only 4 gauges, tac,fuel,temp,and mph. But All the 06 and 07 mustangs I've seen there are 6 gauges, did they not start adding the 2 extra ones until this year? Can anybody shed some light on my wierd question, I am just curious.

The oil and battery gauges come with the IUP, Interior Upgrade Package. Yes they do come on the 05's and 06's. Its a $450 option. Which u want cause it allows you to change the colors of ur instrument panel too.

yea that changing the color of the instrument panel is really cool! I wonder how many colors you can choose from yea it almost makes getting the IUP a necessity instead of an option.

it makes 125 different colors......you also get the message center with the iup. that alone is the best reaon to get the iup.

I got the IUP and am glad I did.
But there's something wrong when one has to order oil & battery gauges as an option on a car like a Mustang. My 66 came with them standard, as did both my 95 GT & 96 Cobra...

MyPony81, You can go to the ford sites and look at stickers just go to http://www.fordvehicles.com/
click on locate dealer then search the inventories at any dealer.

I recently did the IUP retrofit because my car didn't come with it. With all of the different color combos I still use the same old green the car came with. In my opinion the information center with system checks is the best reason for having it.
