bump update? pictures???

not much left to do , instruments work very well
2 Alupanels on each side of the console need to be builded to cover the holes better

iam toying around with the idea to add 3 or 4 more LED Instruments ( 2 in main instrument cluster and 2 on A-Pillar )

these Instruments would be :

Exhaust Temperature
Oiltemp Engine
Oiltemp tranny
RPM

because my engine runs with a propane/buthane i like more gauges to make sure everything works fine

Looking good!

A small detail trick is to have the screw heads to all point in the same direction. XXXXXX ++++++++++ Gives it a finished look.

Guten Tag Wow! I was so happy to find this thread! I came across an image somewhere, and one of the images was one of the early stage of your build where you were test fitting the separated A/C controls. That little trick gave me the little bit of extra space that I needed to mount my 10" touch screen for my CarPC in the center console. You have done an amazing job on that center console!

These gauges worked directly off of the Fiero sensors? No circuitry or anything needed to calibrate them or anything? Could you post a direct link to the gauges you used? I went to the site above, and could not find them. My German is VERY rusty, as I have not spoken it in 15 years. It is quite sad, as I spent a lot of time and effort learning German when I was stationed in Giessen for 4 years with the American Army. I could speak almost fluently, and now, after not speaking it for 15 years, have forgotten just about everything....

yes they work with the Fiero sensors. i attached the coolant temp and oilressure cables directly to 11 and 17 of normal gauge cluster .
but i had to disable the original gauges to make them work .
the Temperature gauge is very exact but it reads in °C Oilpressuregauge works and gives same numbers when i use the Sensor of the gauge manufacturer.
Air Fuel gauge is simply hooked up onto the O2 sensor connector cable.
Volt gauge has no sensor it only needs 2 wires.

direct link to the instrument section of the seller is here :

they have also red digital instruments in program now would be a better match for our cars
