In essence, the left blinker is not in the main wiring harness going to the dash instrumentation. It's a lonely little wire:(

That makes sense.....I need to upgrade the ground probably too... Thanks for the info... I know my back lighting was a little flakey so that could be why

Well i won the cluster! It cost me $137 shipped but i figured the Auto Meter Tach and Speedo alone are worth that. So w00t! Pretty excited

Congratulations! Now for the packages to start rolling in! I always tend to forget what I've ordered and like a surprise every time I open a package!; )

LOL! Ive got several packages here:

Currently waiting install:
Frame Rail
Passenger Front Floor Pan
Shifter Boot
Hood/Cowl Weather Strip

Waiting on:
Trunk Weather Strip (On Back Order til mid april)
Cluster Voltage Regular (Ships next week sometime)
Car Voltage Regular (^^^^)

So yeah....I dont have enough money to spend enough to forget what I got.

I also started to look for a garage or big storage unit to rent so i have a good place to work on the stang. I want to be able to take her completely apart and not have to worry about rain. Like pull out the entire interior, the windows etc. Depends on the cost but i thought i would look around and see if i can find something within 10 mins of my house

Well it's downright amazing how much room a disassembled mustang will take up, plus having an area to work in! What amazes me even more is loosing parts amongst all the stuff! I've spent more time just trying to find a part that I know I have put somewhere and actually had to buy some parts cause they disappeared!! Argh!

Cool and Neat comes to mind! I love the brushed aluminum look! Does the stock speedo come with 160mph on the dial?

JRANGER 04-02-2013 05:21 PM

Re: 1967 Mustang Coupe Build (Electra)
 
No, it has a AutoMeter Speedo and Small tach in the center

Well started to mess with the new cluster tonight only to figure out someone changed this thing up a bunch.. the IVR was no where to be found so no gauge worked at all! The cluster light didnt work nothing... So I took it apart and swapped wires from my other cluster and put the black bezel on. Its still a bit wonky and the Oil Pressure and Ammeter still dont work.... But in good news the Temp seems to be working now...New IVR is still on the way

That sucks! But we all know you're an electrical pro and you'll get it worked out!

JRANGER 04-09-2013 09:36 PM

Re: 1967 Mustang Coupe Build (Electra)
