    Just finished my integrated O.E. style tach, and looking for feedback.
    Wondering what others think, positive or negative feedback is welcomed.

    I was on the fence, silver center to match the speedo, or black, decided to try the black.

    20220108_102108.jpg Cleaned and painted the pointers, assembled, and installed in the car, looks great to me. Will post some finished pics soon.

    I dare say it looks almost stock. Or could have been a factory upgrade.

    I like the fact you could keep the Maverick fuel gauge and all the warning lights. What does the back side look like?

    Looks great. Did you do a write-up on it or what parts you used? I would be interested in going this route with my car. Would like to keep the Maverick fuel gauge and other lights. - Matt
