Gauge panel measurements.

Does anyone have the measurement for the 90-92 Cambie gauge panel?
Im kicking around the idea of getting a Holley hp efi digital dash for my car. I just don’t have the car at the moment to measure it out.
Who can run out to their car and do me a solid. Looking for the outside measurement of the gauge panel and the inside of the panel frame. That’s where all your switches are.

Re: Gauge panel measurements.

Are you looking at the new digital dash they just released? If so, there's not enough room between the column and underside of the dash pad. I think you have about 3.5 inches and the dash is about 5.5 inches. -at least on the 89. I know your gauges are different, but didn't think the space was. .....BUT.....if you're looking at one of the older screens....you may have room. I'm running the 3.5" LCD screen to the right of the gauge pod under the vents.

Re: Gauge panel measurements.

The dimensions of the new Holley lcd screen is 13 7\16 x 5 1/4. This includes the boarders. The biggest obstacle I see is the steering coloum.
That being said most of the mustang guys are trimming the coloums for the dashes to sit inside. As well the gauges can actually be moved around to make room for these obstructions.
my car is in the shop at the moment I’m hoping to get this going come spring.
Thanks for the numbers guys. Post pics or your dashes too.

You are looking at 15.5" side to side, 7.5 up and down at the sides. 4" from top to steering column.

Re: Gauge panel measurements.

Well that’s not too too bad. I’m wondering how much room will be available if the coloum is cut.
See how she goes.
