Hi,
Has any you guys and gals come across a EL or white dial kit to include the oil pressure and vac gauges instead of the usual clock and volt !!!!
Also my dam oil pressure gauge does not register any pressure!!!....the light is on and it does flicker when i switch the ignition on but thats it
Any ideas where to look?....does the sensor go into the oil drain plug?...looks like something might have been there i noticed when i changed the oil
cheers

I don't think anywhere makes aftermarket dials for the oil temp and vaccuum gauges. At least i've never seen any.

Or you can just swap the stock ones for aftermarket white ones. and Probably make a profit by selling your factory ones...

I'm pretty damn sure you would need custom dials made up, there just aren't enough people with vac and oil gauges to warrent making batches of them
