As luck would have it, I found the speedo and tach I have been dreaming/talking about for the last 4-5 years.
I got them "used but never connected". I just could never bite the bullet and pay what Autometer wants for them new. So not being in a rush I waited :lol:
Anyways, on with the pictures...
I also added in a 7" touch screen to the wheel...
The Screen will be connected to my Sony Vaio which will be running Microsoft Streets and Trips with GPS
.
where are the other 5?

Three on the A-Piller (I have the Lo-Tek from my silver00 2dr but have not installed it into the 4dr yet)
1 on the door...
(pictured is the 2dr and 4dr Pods)
4 in the center console...
I am rebuilding a 4dr now, I am still working on the main part of the dash, so thats why nothing is installed right now.
The Lo-Tek cover does not fit right to the 4dr one, so I am thinking of molding it on and then painting it to match the rest of the interior. So when that done, it will be 12

Can you even fill 12 guages??

Curiosity kills me - Are you using them for show, or do you really, really want to keep an eye on your engine's vitals? Nice choice on the gauges, well worth the wait.

The long range plan is a 3400 with turbo but thats after I get everything else done I want to do.
So yes for now (and maybe next two years) they really are just for show. But I do plan on having a Real Reason for them at some point

Very cool.

The gauges look like they will go well with your dash. I kind of have mixed feelings on how the center console is going to look. After taking another look at the instrument cluster if you would call it that. It looks like it is going to be a nightmare to wire in. Even more so if you make them so they are lit up at night. Are you palnning on cutting of the the end that plugs into the stock cluster or how do you paln to wire it.

I am just going to tap into the Wiring Harness/Cluster to hook it up, so thats no problem.
The Center Console are going to be all the Temperature Gauges so...
4 signal wires, Power, Ground, cluster light power wire for a total of 7 wires, not that bad/hard.
I forget which combo gauges I have seen for the phantom series but they did look nice. If I ever add more, I am going to look into those again
