That's the boost guage in the center, oil below and the "shift light" is actualy low oil pressure.

I like the dome light. Is that a laminated glass windshield? I ask because I work with glass full time, I cut one for a rail I had few years ago, welded in small angle iron for a pinch weld and then used catepilar gasket to hold the windshiled, I used bronze colored glass, great in the sun really sucked at night for me anyhow. I was hoping I still had some pics of it but I can't find them. that was about 5 years ago though.fusername wrote:well since I started this i guess its about time i posted mine up. physcially been done for a while, but took some time getting the connectors hooked up on the backside. endresult is something i am very happy with.
the fuel guage is nice and the other rails had low fuel lights that worked great except the R1 when it came on you had 1/2 mile at 3/4 throttle and hope the passenger was blowing behind you for more momentum. I ran out of fuel in that rail once and had to do the walk of shame to the camp site, it was a good thing I was only a mile out. The really nice feature about these stock dashes is if you have a motor problem (like a street car) you can run a diagnosis of the fuel injection and ignition system through the dash.Leatherneck wrote:A fuel gauge, man I am jealous!
