We have finally made a clock to match the center console volt meter, oil temp gauge, and optional (for us ) oil pressure gauge. These are perfect fit center console size not the aftermarket smaller ones. Clock is 49.50 introductory price for club members. How many are interested?
We will now have a complete console package factory duplicate center console three factory look gauges console heater switch wiring harness (thank you Jeff Bowlsby) |

Is the harness for those that did not have the center console in the first place? I am a bit confused (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

Jeff's harness just plugs into this clock, and the short harness then plugs into the main wiring harness located under the center tunnel carpet (on all 73-76 models). For the earlier cars we include a schematic showing where to tap the 70-72 wiring harness in the correct places to power the console gauges (like the brake pedal switch for one place!!)

Can I get the wiring schematic with purchase of just the clock? ok I will put together a link and all who are interested can order, obviously as usual you will not be charged until the part is on the dock and ready to ship Does the clock just plug in to the old harness attachment point or is a new harness required to replace the clock.

everything is a direct plug in.
Funny, when I was a kid, just loved the center console in a 914 gave it a nice vertical dimension and a luxurious look and feel. NOW in my old age, I just love the simplicity of the center tray and cushion and sea to shining sea (I mean rocker panel) emptiness and massive foot and leg room Jeff's harness just plugs into this clock, and the short harness then plugs into the main wiring harness located under the center tunnel carpet (on all 73-76 models).

NOW in my old age, I just love the simplicity of the center tray and cushion and sea to shining sea (I mean rocker panel) emptiness and massive foot and leg room Same as @dr914 @autoatlanta.com, I used to love the console look but as I grew older I began to see it as a pain as it had to be removed whenever access to cables or shifter was required and now I like the look without it. It's much more spacious and air circulation is better. What I'd really like a a horizontal holder for these 3 gauges under the dash. I think VDO used to make one but long since gone. A tray just around the shifter in original material (same size as original piece) would also be nice. Been looking at how to make my own. |
