I have a sort of ratty set of gauges in my '72. Will the newer set of gauges from a '74 (Speedo, Tach & fuel) plug into my '72 or are there some big differences that would require some rewiring or ??
Thanks |

The later gauges will work in place of the earlier gauges. The main difference is the later tach has a single turn signal indicator and the older gauge had separate left/right indicators. One way to fix this is to use two diodes to 'OR' the left/right lamp circuits together to illuminate the single bulb. Someone else out there may have another solution that would work just as well.
