Putting aftermarket guages into the OE cluster-Minivan-and Alans TC version!! lol!

[turbovanman²]

I have a spare cluster so I figured I would see if I could cleanly mount a 2 1/16 Autometer guage in there, I want to run a real oil pressure guage and have run out of room around my dash. Check it out, its really very simple to do and I can even use the power, ground and signal wire off the old factory guage so I don't even need to run new wiring.

Very cool Simon. How deep is the bezel on the autometer gauge? That is one thing I really don't like about them is that they usually have that super thick bezel.

Its aprox 1/2 an inch but even with that, its nowhere near the plastic lense of the factory cluster.

Hey, what are the odd's?? I did mine yesterday too. Used to be on top of the dash wrapped in an extra bit of factory ginger leather sourced from a J yard TC. But now that the man is actually checking for A pillar gauges/pods as a tip off to modded vehicals (yep, they WILL tell you to pop the hood AND write you up for speed equipment:( ) Anyway, cleaner now and more low profile:thumb: mounted the four light Dawes 'remote mount' AF there too:eyebrows:

Wanna rename the thread 'show your integrated boost gauges' Simon;) ?

Well, sure, I guess I could, ;)

Alan, I like that gauge. Very clean look, and it would appear as though it does not have the huge bezel on it that I don't like. Nice.
