95+ Gauge install

Now the Gauge kit that Im installing is the Alfe Otto Racing Glo-Gauges for an 95 Base
But this kit is diffrent from others so I wouldnt reccomend Following my steps except for the Disassembly





First Remove the 2 Screws at the Top of the dash piece in front of the Gauge Cluster
Then remove the dash piece and Disconnect the plugs to your dimmer and Cruise Cont. (If you have one)




Then Remove The 3 screws holding in the cluster
Then Disconnect All wires going to the Cluster (If you have bad memorey you should label the wires you pull)





After That You must now Remove The Clear Plastic Peice by slipping out the eight tabs





Then Remove All tabs holld black trim in





For this kit You MUST slip the new gauges over the old one's





Then you route your black wires throught the hole at the top on the left side






Then you can Re-Install the Trim Pieces






Now you can Re-Install the Cluster and Wire the 4 black wires comming from the gage faces Wires to the controller





Now Our power source for the gauges is the Parking lights (Red w/ Bluse Stripe Wire)
Located at the top on the left of the Steering Collum
-First Remove plastics covering Collum
-Then locate the wire
-Then trace the wire down under the dash and connect your red wire to the Power source






Then Re-Intall All the Black Pieces and Enjoy your New Gauges
