I've always liked this warning light stack in the MC/EC cluster. Has anyone ever modified or used the top three blank spots for other warnings or indicators? I know the Buick gauges have the ability to add the low fuel warning but Im unsure if that's possible on this cluster as well. Anyone with any knowledge on this or just ideas on what the fills those blanks with?

I see I'm not the only one with this idea. My Monte is a converted gauge car so I want to reinstall the volt/battery, temp & maybe a low fuel light. Since I don't have a computer so I have the Check Engine light to convert to one. I've even thought of adding them to where the shift indicator went as I have a stick.

My black 79 Monte Carlo was converted to the gauge package, I ended up severing the power to the choke lamp (Powers the electric choke from the printed circuit) and used it as a indicator for my line lock.
