I've been looking at these SS guage conversion packages on Ebay. Anybody have any experience or know anything about them? Looks like a nice kit, circuit board, guages, wiring, temp sender. I'm redoing the dash this spring and I was looking at installing this kit when I do.

I got the kit a few weeks ago. The guages look nice, I just need a little warm weather so I can tear in to the dash.

Did you answer your own question or did I miss something? LOL:confused:

Ahhh, so that 'splains it! Never mind.

But there's an interesting conversion conversion that peaked my interest a few weeks back.

FROM INSTRUMENTSRUS. REPLACE YOUR AMP GAUGE WITH AN OIL PRESSURE GAUGE OR VOLT METER!

NOW, YOU CAN FINALLY HAVE AN OIL PRESSURE GAUGE OR VOLT METER TO REPLACE THE AMP GAUGE IN YOUR 1970-72 CHEVELLE, MONTE CARLO OR EL CAMINO GAUGE PACKAGE.

No I didn't order them before I started this post but did a little later, you guys were no help. Like I said they showed up a week or so ago. Very nice looking setup. I would like an oil pressure gauge but this setup will have to do. Now I can remove the mess of gauges hanging off the bottom of the dash. They were on the dash when I bought the car, look terrible and I can't even see them when I'm driving.
