66 barracuda gage replacement
Oh contraire.
Mine is nowhere near stock and is completely LED lit including the hi beam indicator, signal indicators and backlighting.
Those 12v LED strips are great for the backlighting, because you can run light in places where there were no provision for bulbs in the factory cluster.
I even considered adding red backlighting for an extra super noticeable oil pressure loss indicator.
(oil pressure drops or the engine hasn't been started yet the cluster would all be red backlit then turn off when pressure came up.
As far as what you might loose not using the round connector, that should be easy to determine by what is there and what you want or need.
For the volt meter you can not use the old amp meter wires because they are always hot and your volt meter would always be on.
You need to use a keyed power source like the accy circuit for the gauge positive and ground the negative to the dash frame.
Up on the pod is tach, AFR, Fuel, and the little red light is for the line lock.
