I wanted to know if i could put Mach 1 or Bullitt guages in mine. I have a 2003 so I think the setup will be different.

I wanted to know if I could put my stock gauges where they belong and just buy overlays to avoid the hassle of wondering if different gauges would work for me.

both should work, well, i dont know about the 98 becasue you have a mechanical odomenter. so that one im not sure on but hte 01 or 04 gauges in a 03 should work. the 99-00 gt and cobra gauges should fit in the 99-00 v6 and the 01-04 bullitt, mach, and cobra gauges should fit in a 01-04 v6. the only think you have to do to make it work is take the computer modual out of the inside of the gauge pod and switch it to the new gauges. then everything should read right.

The Cobra should work just fine, the only real way is to test it.

If your really worried you could also buy an AutoMeter guage cluster.
