    the electronic auto meter gauges I was looking at, the 5" sizes, were between $225-280 and still required the Hall Effect sender which is another $70 or so ....

    those speedos will work off of the ford factory sensor that is on the t5 speedo cable in a mustang for the cruise control. i have one for the capri project that i can show you and we can go down to ecology and get one off of most of the ford rwd cars or trucks. or we can see what a new one costs but then we dont get the pig tail that plugs into it.
    we should pick up a few of these when we have the chance.

    Interesting that two people have been having trouble with the electronic gauges. I want to keep my gauges looking the same, probably will try the auto meter and see what happens.
