Here is mine, havent thought of where the tach is going yet. Trying to keep a very stock look...but i just love the clock so much!!!

my original idea was to make the clock the tach. use the clock face and stuff. it would look sick but it would never tell you the time.

What did you use for the blinkers? I used my stock blinkers with the green overlay then just drilled holes in the plastic I used to mount the aftermarket gauges. It looks fine, but I've been wanting a cleaner look.

Ditto on Radio Shack. They have lots of options, just make sure they are 12v. They even have leds.

The gauges ran about $500 give or take. Took about a year, buying 1 at a time, to get all of them(good thing GlowShift has free shipping). The speedo sending unit was about $50. The lamps for the blinkers and high beam ran about $5 or so. I had some 16g sheet metal from an earlier project. Paint, wire, and connectors ran about $10-15. But I did buy an "idiot light" gauge set from another cutlass for $25(to use to house the gauges and sheetmetal...didn't want to destroy my rally pack).

Took a minute, but they look good. I was scared cause everyone said you can only put 3 3/4" gauges without cutting, but those are close to 4".
