Is it just a simple swap? I know the redlines are different, and that Cobra clusters are very expensive, but I was just wondering.

Hey man, I ask a lot of questions. Most of them are on the tech board, too.

Don't think you guys aren't a huge help. I've learned so much already!

from what ive hurd i belive the guages will work but you cant swap the circuit board in the back since the cobra has a boost guage instead.

Agreed, I have the Autometer Lunar Series and they are way better than the stock gauges.

I already do have white face gauges. But I really like how the Cobra gauges are lit.
