I know a set of center gauges and a complete wiring harness is getting ready to become available. So keep your eyes out for this.
Hi Ken,I've been watching this thread as,my vert also came with idiot lights. I managed to find a factory setup and went about installing that, it took some time and halfway through I thought "what the heck have I done to my car" but love the look of the end result.
Hi Totalled,I would not hack an original gage setup. I'd use flat stock and fab a mount bracket to hang the gauges behind the bezel.
I understand what you mean Greg, and i agree. The most important thing is that you're happy with what you've got and it all works.Greg, I agree with you. The autometers look nice but if I were doing it again I think I'd have kept the original gauges. My car came with them from the factory but maybe they weren't working so the previous owner did the autometer deal.
Anyway, looks good on my car when installed and am happy with what's currently there.

Hi Mus,I recommend using white face gage's as they are easier to read at night. I did one set in white and one in black. Ask Midlife if He has a replacement under dash wiring harness be fore cutting into the harness. A lot changes in the wiring color codes from 71 to 73.
Hi Midlife,Austin should stay with autometer center gauges, as the wiring needed for the conversion is much simpler and probably cheaper than going with the Ford system. Yeah, I'm losing business, but I'm already swamped!
