Cluster ownage

[Ravewolf]

Decided I wanted to move my manual oil gauge in my cluster since my old gauge is dead (completely removed sender), so I got after it with a dremel. Here you go for your viewing pleasure . And yes, to all that are curious, that is me in the background, six chins nd all

that actually looks pretty nice. I've never thought about mounting gauges in the stock cluster, it isn't a bad idea.

 

[2gawdtsi]

That looks really good.

 

[turbotalon31]

Looks nice good job. How much trimming did you have to do?

 

[VTEC_THIS]

Looks really nice. If I didn't know better I would have thought it was stock. Great job!

 

[Ravewolf]

Thanks for the kudos, and it wasn't hard to do. I had to trim maybe an 1/8th of an inch on the gauge over lay, and knock out a couple of spots on the back, but it fit perfect after that . I haven't hooked it up yet, but will tomorrow, and get pics with lights on an all. If need be I can snag a digi camera and do a step by step on the next gauge I mount (thinking about putting in a manual temp. gauge instead of the crappy stock).

 

[noV8undrDIShood]

nice job man.. should be cool with the temp gauge in their too..

 

[Tanro]

Nice work.

I actually like that alot, I would have never thought of putting mine in the cluster....good job

 

[Aproductions]

wow, that looks awesome, +1 for creativity

Nice job. I actually did the same thing awhile ago except I also replaced my water temp gauge as well. I didn't want gauges all over so that is the route I went. Looks good keep up the good work.

Holy crap, what the hell is up Diego . I'll give 3 gold stars if you guess who I am . I was actually gonna post pics of your gauge cluster. OP, great job with the install btw.

 

[AWD-TSI]

hey wats good jeff.

 

[motozachl]

I was actually contemplating this same idea and wondered how it would look. Not too shabby AWD-TSI

If only we could replace the fuel gauge to look like the others that would be perrrrrrfect

Good work, now you just need to replace the useless factory oil pressure gauge.

 

[ktgurl87]

are the oil pressure gauges pretty notorious for going out? this would be for a 2g that i am asking.

 

[ryanx99GS]

Did that with my conquest. Looks good

idk if you noticed sir but uhm...thats what they removed! hahahaha

i did that too actually on my old talon! idk it was nice for a little while till it shorted my cluster out

 

[T is for TURBO]

I'm seriously considering doing this to my 2g...

 

[King_Milo]

Nice!

 

[AWD-TSI]

I had to make a jumper to have my cluster work. I was also gonna change out the factory fuel gauge but I didn't want to go to the trouble of figuring out the sending unit for it. I got lazy and stuck with what I had.

 

[FluidKaos]

Nice! I was thinking about doing something like that eventually, just don't know how I'd do about doing it. Wasn't too hard was it?

 

[4g63monstr]

I like this, It would be cool if you did it again if you could post a thread with step by step on how you did it with some pictures, I would be very interested.

 

[justinschmiidt]

To the OP, That looks really good, Have any more pictures installed?

are the oil pressure gauges pretty notorious for going out? this would be for a 2g that i am asking.

^They are just considered useless if you have a motor you care about, it's important to know the actual oil pressure vs. " uhh 1/2 way, or about 3/4 "

Looks great man! I love it.. i REALLY want to do this but put a wideband gauge where the stock oil pressure is and a tranny temp where the stock temp gauge is.. but im to big of a chicken to just start hackin up my cluster .. If you "or anyone" could post up a step by step of this mod with pictures of the inside of the cluster and the back it would be greatly appreciated! thanks
