    Hey guys, thread from 2004, and polling stations are closed.

    With that being said...

    With rear gear swap and different tires, the speedo is useless, and I use a GPS on the windshield for a speedo anyways. (still stuck to the windshield top right corner of picture)

    I can't see the turn signal indicators, though...

    Yeah, I had one, but when I took a turn with a bit of drift, the battery flew around in the trunk and came off, and the alternator blew out my tach.

    So this is the new one.

    I have mine where I can see all the gauges; I like to know where my gas needle lies. The unit is 3.5" Autometer. I choose this size specifically so it cud be placed where I have a view of entire dash cluster. I like the appereance of the meduim size tach, it seems to go w\ the cluster better than the monster units....:yup:

    Oh, yeah, I cannot see my gas gauge anymore, either...

    I had my old one set up like mojo's.

    Hey Everett, you better put some gas in that Maverick or you'll really feel the "windy city" when you have to walk home :rofl2:

    I bought a set of those white gauge faces too - they look great (y)
