Autometer (or similar) gauges in stock gauge cluster.

Hey Guys,

Does anyone know of any of these gauges that will fit in the stock speedo and tach places? If not, is anyone willing to make one?

My OIL, WATER, and TRANS TEMP gauges are in a pillar pod. so I will have no need for the stock oil and water.

Thanks for any input.

-Matt


1 more thing. Is there any way to get the fuel gauge to not have alot of play (be more accurate)?

I got 5 inch gauges to fit by just enlarging the hole. In the pic is what someone else did too so you can see

Those look cool

Would you happen to have a part number and where they're cheapest (I suppose ebay)?

I think i found them, about $400 for both speedo and tach, Not Cheap!

Shows how I did mine (post 89) and another member was able to chime in and show how he did his (pre 90).
