Good Afternoon, All

Well this seems to be Larry asks silly questions day....but: does a standard 2 1/6" gauge fit into the backlit instrument cluster?

I would consider a digital fuel gauge if it just a matter of swapping the gauge....well and interfacing, of course.

Is there any size gauge that will work?

Anyone try it?

TIA,

Larry

Are you planning on swapping the temp gauge as well? They are both on the same gauge. You can't do only one.

Nope, I really hand not considered changing another gauge....I am quite fond of the existing gauges.

Why could I not change one and not the other?

I was under the impression that you were trying to swap only the fuel gauge to a digital one. Which wouldn't be possible since the fuel gauge is combined with the temp gauge. You would have to do both at the same time. Not one or the other.
