I went by and checked on the progress of the truck Friday. Still was waiting on AC compressor to show up. Hope this Frday to get it back.
So I worked overtime last Thursday and rode to lunch with one of my team members here at work. He had this cool little gauge reader I liked and it hooks up to any 96 are newer vehicle. It's called a Scan gauge. Very nice compact unit. I will have one soon!

Up until now I have been using a Bullydog GT monitor. Very compact and full of information. Fairly reasonable in price at about $200.00 if I recall correctly. It just did not have the look I was out to achieve.

Made a bit more progress, large gauges into the main cluster housing. Slow going, high temp averaged 15 degrees in last 10 days, so much for sub-tropcal climate the chamber of commerce advertises.

So here is the finished product compared to the stock. I shuold have the new PCM and TCM back in the next couple of days to see how it all works out.

Thanks, it looks even better in real life. I will post a video of the gauges in operation when I can figure out how my camera really works. The night mode really looks awesome with the back light and the glowing pointers.
