can you guys call your local wreaking yards? I ned a 94-95 (maybe 96) 1.9TD Golf/Jetta Guage cluster, preferably 5 speed, KMPH prefered.
thx
Wow, you've been looking for one for a long time, eh? Better increase your bid on ebay. MPH should be fine because you can change the gauge face to km/h.
Or go custom like I'm planning on doing:
You'll need a $65 USD alternator to RPM signal converter from Dakota Digital (model DS-1 IIRC) to make an aftermarket tach work. I'm pretty sure the Dakota unit is plug-and-play too (mine's still in mail so I haven't installed it yet). It's made to fit in the VW "W" terminal on the alternator.
You can just get a tachometer and speedo (odometer included) if you prefer to leave your existing EGT and boost Autometer gauges in your radio delete area. I'm sure a glow plug LED and turn signal LEDs can be wired in easily. Water & oil pressure warning LEDs can probably be wired in as well, or if you already have Autometer oil temp/pressure & water gauges, you're fine.
I'm going to have a plastic panel cut at a plastics shop in Langley, where I had my 4-gauge radio delete panel custom made. I can make another instrument panel for you, if you want. Just specify what size gauges and their location on the panel.
I'll get dimensions for the panel in a couple weeks (going on vacation soon), then I can email it to you so you can drag and drop circles (representing gauge cutouts) on the panel.
Are you familiar with using Layers in Photoshop or The Gimp?
