i have an 89 formula with a 305, and i recently my gauges have been fried. there was a good cloud of smoke from the vents and now nothing works.

my questions are:
-is there a place that sells printed circuit paper for these gauges?

-is it possible to tansfer all digital gauges to my car if it was needles before?

and is there any other options with either autometer or equus gauges that i can replace it with?


thanks and any thoughts are welcome

OK what happened to make it fry? I would be worried about that first.

Just get a cluster from the JY

Yes, do a search, several companies make them.

Again, search is your friend. Yes.

 

i havent had a chance to tear into my dash yet, it happend while i was at college. the digital gauges i meant to say were out of a trans am, i was wondering if i could get those to work. and i have looked and found equus gauges for 380.00 then i have to buy that covan pod for 124.00 from year one.

does that help a little more?

i also plan on tearing into the dash within the next two weeks too, it will be a good spring break activity.

i was also wondering what the JY site is too. if i could buy some stock oem gauges from there i would definately do that.

thanks again

 

JY = Junk Yard

 

kinda new to the terms, thanks for letting me know

 

Some people are just too lazy to type and expect everyone to know all of these abbreviations lol

 

Dakota Digital sells an all digital cluster and it includes most of the sending units. It gives you all sort of options including 0- 60 times, speed monitoring and more. Google them, but expect to pay a bit. I didn't look at them for the formulas but I know they had them for the camaros.
