Busta Nut Posted August 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 Customer wants the gauges remove and the stock ones working again. That's in the process. The ops spot is plugged. So I made this from what was around. Need to find that CTS wire?! Found it! Found the one for the OPS too! Quote Link to comment

Busta Nut Posted August 31, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 31, 2012 Well....I'm beginning to think the owner of this car is kind of a flake. I have NO faith that he's gonna continue this thread. I've wasted my time.... I feel used... Hopefully someone got some enjoyment from the pics.....at the least. here are some pics I had left...I won't be updating this thread anymore....so do what you will with it. Quote Link to comment
