97 GTS aftermarket gauge replacement

[SUPRAMN]

I have my dash out at the moment for upgrades and I have changed out the 4 small gauges on the dash to autometer competition series.

In that competition series they have a speedo and tach that are 3 3/8" size and I am wandering if they are the same size as what is in the factory location.

It would look great to have them all match.

Also on the speedo would i be able to use the Autometer odometer as it is digital and the factory is mechanical.

Thanks

can you post some pictures?

I am wandering too.

Dave, you're going to get lost.

 

[Vital Velocity]

Id like to see pics too

 

['Trust']

Pics for sure. I plan on at least putting true white LED's in mine when the dash is out over the winter for the interior project, that yellowish tint has to go!

How can I post pics yet. I was asking a question to see if something could be done and nobody knows. If I can get this to work I will post some

With a camera and a computer?

I think he is trying to get an answer to this question first:

JEGS has a nice page on these gauges, showing (what looks like) the complete array of gauges offered:

Someone must know the diameter of the stock speedo/tach!

We will not allow his path forward to be a ransom note for our desire to see his progress to date.

Very Interesting interior.

 

[SUPRAMN]

The pictures distort the weave somewhat but it is Italian leather that is weaved like carbon fiber.

 

[JohnnyViper]

love it!!!!

 

[JohnnyViper]

i really like the leather on the dash, did you do it? Also do you have any night pictures with everything lit up?

 

[SUPRAMN]

I did not do it, it was done by vipers by elite in Florida. The dash was a nightmare. Getting the stitching right around the gauges where it curves was very hard and it took several takes to get it.

I just got the car back so not many pics yet

I like it...you should've done the door handles as well...I m getting custom guage overlays made for my car which will be red with black...will post pics once I've them installed...

 

[KNG SNKE]

i think it will be an issue to swap them because of the odometer.

 

[Sweet Ride]

Very cool! Nice interior!

Did you use electric or mechanical guages?

 

[Simms]

I like the stitching around the guage cluster.

 

[SUPRAMN]

They are all electric gauges. No problem with the odometer you just need a part from dakota digital to make it work and pick up the signal.

Does it automatically pick up your current mileage or do you have to adjust it?

 

[SUPRAMN]

There is a process for adding the mileage

Very slick looking, I like it.

 

[JohnnyViper]

do you have any night pictures?

I thought the guages are sealed?

If you go back to stock how does the original mechanical odometer get adjusted to match actual mileage?
