GT500 Gauges???
Does anyone know how I can change my setup to be just like the GT500's? I hate having my tach on the left...The only time I look at the speedo is when I'm passing a highly "poe poe" populated area...or when I'm in 5th already...[sm=gears.gif]
They did it right with the GT500...I really want my tach on the right...HELP!

The gauge panel is a one piece so in order to swap them you would need a new gauge panel, also the wire harness isnt long enough to criss cross the guages not to mention the the solid piece that supports all the hardware behind the guages.

The reason is I look at the tach more than the MPH and when I'm getting on it I can't see how close I am to redline...it's frustrating!!! maybe ashift light might be a cheap solution...but I was hoping since they are about an inch away from one another can't I just switch them??? I guess I'll have to reserch this elsewhere...[&:]

I hardly ever look at the tach...listen to the engine and use a shift light. But when the stereo is real loud I sometimes realize my tires are spinning in first gear when the shift light comes on prematurely.

Oh wait did you mean a S197 Mustang? 
I really do not see what the problem is. I can see the speedo and tach equally well. fd
