RE: Ideas on mounting gauges?
yeah man no problem, i decided last week i was swapping everything out,,, i sold my 140mph gauge cluster, bought a new florida5.0 6 gauge cluster w/ new autometer stuff in it, and bought one of em panels with the a/c controls on bottom, radio in the middle, and gauges up top for better viewing, if someone really needed some gauges and didnt want a/c anymore or didnt have a/c could have 6 gauge holes cut in new plate, be sweet and looks clean as hell, good luck with the project!!

naw i havent received it yet, supposed to ship today or tomorrow, should have it and have it in by middle next week, as for the a/c plate, it will go in when i put boost on the new 347 sometime this winter, ill post pics when i get the florida50 cluster put in,, they look freakin sweet though, and makes it a lil harder for people to steal your gauges off your dash, esp a vert like mine, be easy to cut top and rip tach or gauge pods off dash or pillar,,,

dont think it is that hard, if you are going to use new gauges get new senders or tap your current sender wire and just forget the stock gauges, easy!!
