Replacing Instrument Gauges?

Rizz67 · 04-06-2001, 08:49 PM

I have a 67 mustang with an original tach dash kit. As of now, i have water, oil pressure, and ammeter pods attached at the bottem. I saw some company that sells instrument panels with brand new autometer gauges. However, i really do not want to replace my whole panel since of the original tach gauge. I was wondering if i could just replace the non functional water temperature and clock with some autometer gauges? If anyone has done anything similar, or any suggestions, please do help

Yup it can be done, dis asemble the entire cluster, using a plastic knife ( an electric razor knife) the inside rim of the can be cut away without damage to the face plate, then insert the NEW one in uts place. remember to only trim itenugh so that the new one will fit firmly. drop it in place, reasemble cluster & use something like pc7 (epoxy) to seal and keep it in place.
