I would like to replace the guages in my GN that 85mph speedo drives me crazy. I would like to install Autometer guages but was wondering if anybody has seen a plastic guage cluster avaliable similar to the one on a GNX, it does not have to have guages in it but it does need to cover the hole after I remove all the factory ones. If anybody has seen or made something like this any advice would be appreciated.

I have never used any of these but the idea seems pretty simple. You would have to watch out for how deep the guage actually is for clearance puposes.

Also I know it is pricey but a very nice setup.

Thanks for the direction Mike. Engraver1 looks like he has exactly what I am looking for.

I used guages from Westberg or Westburg. They are
2 in 1 electric aircraft guages. I put them in the dash in the area where the rear window d-froster switch is and moved the switch somewhere else (glove compartment :))

On the left I have EGT and oil temp, on the right I have oil pressure and water temp. Had to cut away some honeycomb behind but they work well and really look like they belong there.

Can you post pics in this forum??

Sounds neat! You can't post pictures (our poor little server won't handle the load yet)... but you can post a link to a web site with the pictures.

If you write up an "install article" I can get it out on the GN/TType technical aricles pages ...

Ken:

I will try to post the pics to a web site this week. It's been 17 years since I did this install, but I may be able to remember how I did it :)
