Custom instrument clusters?

What's out there? I want to dress up my gauge cluster. I'd like to be able to put better gauges in there. I know I need more gauges than what the truck came with, and I don't want a bunch of gauge pods bolted all over the place.


If it wouldn't throw the computer into a tizzy, I wouldn't mind buying a blank panel, and going with all glo-shift gauges.

Just get a ScanGauge ll. $150 bucks will get you more readings than you'll know what to do with.

I am not even shure that could be done. A lot more to the cluster than gauges and lights. A lot of intgrated electronics.

I just don't care for the boring stock unit, and want something cool and custom.


I will have a tuner hooked up, but I want something better than stock.

Well 5 to 10 Grand an electronics engineer and a couple of years and you could probably build anything you want for a cluster.
