Tap is a 1/8 NPT, drill is a R size or .339". Work your way up to that size. I think I drilled a total of three differant sizes before I was through.

Congrats on getting the gauges Mike you'll like the style of the Isspros I love mine, though I went with the A-piller pod it is alot easier to look at and I have a Lariat truck with an overhead console so I didn't want to have too much stuff up there and running wires through the headliner. I believe the four hole pod is the same price as a three because I thought of the same thing, I just went with the F5 gauge holder switch instead of getting a new gauge.

Thats great JD, thanks. I,m going with the pillar pod, i see what you guys are talking about. I see they come with 3 options of gauge color and style, i,m almost dead set on this stock look gauge but the white dial blue pointer looks good too. I guess its all a matter of preferance. Prolly go with the stock look.

ISSPRO EV Gauge Kit from DieselManor Along with a Tru-Cool MAX transmission cooler with external cold weather thermal bypass from bulkpart transmission! I can't wait to get them and install em!
