You got about as much gas in ur car as I do... Doesnt last long does it!

 

 

not with my foot when i get to drive it like like i stole it...which is rare...either way...driving in the city...it goes fast...but i love the sound so its worth it imo...

Be CAREFUL when you put whitefaces on or get the tool to pull the pointers off the correct way or it will mess up every gauge on the cluster, Glad to see you came to the 140 side in the fox world.

 

P.S. I still have a top switch if you need it.

 

 

yeah i bought a 93 GT cluster from a guy on my local forum and i pulled the point off of the RPM on the left over cluster and it was a little bit tough to get off....

 

what kind of tool do i need?

 

yeah i still want it..things have just been hectic on our end for the past few weeks....

I dunno some wierd ass thing, and if your car is an 88 I belive an 90-93 cluster wont work right, Does it have the blue or pink back the 87-89 needs the blue

 

 

yeah i know...i took the 140 mph speedo out of the 93 cluster and pulled the 85mph speedo out of mine and put the 140mph one in after i filled it down so it would fit..took me 20 mins...wasnt bad...then i used the face and plastic from the 93 becasue it looked a little better then the 88 style...

 

have idea where to even look for something like that?

 

you have white face gauges in your stang?

the guage cluster that will fit your car is an '89. i think that was the first year with the 140mph speedo. the '90-93 clusters have the bump in the middle for the airbag, so they're not a perfect fit, but close enough.

fits in my 88 fine...i just took the 140mph speedo out of the 93gt cluster...cut it to fit my 88..put it in and put it in the car...works perfect.

this is what i'm referring to. its not a big deal at all, so don't think i'm criticizing you.

here's the guage pod out of an '89 car, notice it doesn't have the large hump in the middle, which is for clearance of the airbag on the '90-93's. like i said, it doesn't mean a thing, as i'm sure it fits/looks fine

like i said..that piece was filled down so that it fits flush with the gauge faces....i like the look of the 90-93 cluster i i used MY 88 case...i took the 85mph speedo OUT of it...same thing to the 93 cluster...TRIMMED the 140mph speedo to fit the 88 CLUSTER CASE then filled down the 93 FACE COVER to fir the 88 case.
