replacing idiot gauge lights question
my 1987 base camaro is barebones for options
does have c&c t-tops and is a v6 multiport 5-speed
but my guages r just speed and gas
the other 3 holes r red idiot lights for oil temp and battery
i'd like actual gauges for those
i'd also like to have rpm gauge but that can wait
my question is.....
do i just need to replace those 3 gauges and replace the sensors?
and the wiring shouldn't have to change correct?
or is there something else i need to consider?

You need to replace the cluster and the senders.
