Gauges


Is it hard to install new gauges in these cars. I have an 02 Gt and i want to buy white face gauges, is it very difficult to install and easy to mess something up? I dont wana risk messing anything up with the dash.

They are expensive... considering... your really not getting all that much. I'd recommend getting a guage pod while your at it, mounting it on your dash and just throwing them there.

Thats what I did with mine, looks nice, and is informative.

Yeah, I'm planning on getting a three gauge pod for my stang. Not sure which gauges to get yet, but I like the three gauge pod look.

Yeah well there are actually some good guage pods out there... there are the three, the two mount for the center dash and you also have the ones that attach to the frame on the side above the door for the race kind-of look.

I personally use the 2 guage center dash console mount. You can't even tell it's mounted, it looks like it's a part of the dash. Fits very nice, electronic guages inside, I even have a tach with a shift light. It's nice.

Or you can get the gauge bezel out of a 35th Anniversary like I did...I have on with the billet piece around the gauges too...It does not look that great IMHO...

Does anyone know where I can get a gauge cluster? American Muscle had them but last time I checked they were discontinued. Like matrixpuba's but not roush.
