Gauges

[Jean-Marc Dugas]

I have been thinking of installing a few gages to the 54XL so that I can monitor some of the critical components of the car.

Since space is limited on the Superior console and I want to keep the original look, I was thinking of a set-up that I can attach within view when driving and then stow away at shows, either with a quick connector or a long cord behind the dash. One of them needs to be analog so it looks period correct on the Superir Console, but the other ones could be digital. I'll figure this part out later, but if anyone has any ideas, let me know.

Anyhow, in order of importance, what do you suggest I should have for gauges?

I am thinking
Temp
Amp
Voltage
Oil Pressure

I do not think that there is anything else, is there?

Any suggestions welcome.

Amp or volt as the both monitor the same thing. Vary common to find to find a after market amp gage hanging down. But never in a good place to see it. I have never seen them with any kind of quick disconnects.
