Base model idiot lights.
So from what I've read my base model firebird is very basic. Instead of having my amazing temp gauge I've been hunting for I have two rows of idiot lights. So a couple questions here. Does anyone know what all idiot lights are there? I've seen charging, oil, and brakes so far. I'm curious if I can't find small gauges to fit.
Secondly is there a place to add in another temp sensor for a new gauge or are there wires I can tap in to?

There is a temp and check engine light or SES that's bout all I've seen in mine that I can add.

The complete instrument panel harness needs to be changed on the Firebird. Unfortunately you cannot simply swap in the gauge cluster. There are several disscussion threads on this.
