hmm interesting guage swap

these are out of a jaguar, the tan peice comes off, thought it would be neat to put in a camaro, looks like itd fit easier in a 90-92. they are programable gauges tooo

They might look good in a jag, but i think if you left the wood grain there it would look terrible in a maro/bird... there are better ones you can get for it already with no modification

i think they would look really good if you painted the wood crap, but i would imagine you would have one hell of a time getting them to work

ill save em, my dad wants to build a car im thinkin a 91 or 92 rs, i think these gauges will fit best in that style dash, plus the speedo is electric in those years. ill probably have to cut part of harness and get some type of manual on the car to figure out the wiring, but if they are programable that would be helpful. painting the wood grain will be easy, after that theyll look very nice!

Leave it to Ford to use the odd numbers on the speedo instead of the evens. (Jag is owned by Ford in case you didn't know.)
