I replaced my gauges with Covan classic dash, uses autometer guages. You can get the dash panel in different configuration and guages. They look fantastic

I've never understood why they dont make one for the 'bird... I think he means to keep the turn signals, ses light and "Fasten seat belt" Light. I'll admit, thats whats keeping me from replacing mine as well. I already have all the pro-comp ultra-light gauges to do it. All I need is the speedo sender and the panel...

The covan gauges have a signal, high beam, and emergency brake lights in the panel. I was happy to get rid of that shift light
