These days, I can't drive the car much due to back issues, but I refuse to sell it. As of today, after the work below, I now have an oil pressure gauge and voltmeter on everything I drive (motorcycle, Ford Ranger and Crossfire).

Im reasonably happy - Gauges are ProSport Performance Series in Green/White (selectable). I have them in full time Green mode but with the top down in sunlight, the pointers are hard to see, I will try White mode and see what I think.

I have some cosmetic work to do, but am happy with the $23 el cheapo GLowShift pod - which I painted to match the trim and got close but not as close as I'd like it to be.



In the photo below, you can see that I have no cover over the wires at the bottom. Im going to cut the original piller trim plastic and try to provide a cover - there are snap-in anchors behind that lowest part of the pillar trim so this will be simple IF I can cut the trim properly - it will take time for me to work up the nerve and patience to do that.......

 

I used a no 8 screw and about a 3/8" spacer to fasten the pod to the pillar.

 

Over on Fakebook, I have over 16 inquiries about what parts I used, etc. I will strive to write a paper this week giving details on parts used, wiring, and plumbing involved.

I think there are better ways of doing what I did - I post only to show what can be done "on the cheap". A $23 pod is not really the way go to, but it works for me.

Sure wish I had a 3D printer and the knowledge to use it............

 

I think it looks great and is better than the factory idiot lights!
