Hey guys, I'm going to create a mini build thread for the rewiring job. I don't normally do build threads because I get into the work and forget to take pictures, but I'll give it a try this time.

Rewiring my EFI Magnum - 1970 Dart Swinger

Can you tell me more about putting the Sunpro voltage meter into the rallye dash? I also have a rallye dash and will be pulling the bezel off soon, so this is a good time for me to do that kind of mod.

I had a extra bezel from a 1973 duster and I was asked to Tta h a

Do a search for "Sunpro" couple different ways of doing it. I just gutted a spare amp gauge housing, disassemble the volt meter and it bolted right in. I had to drill new holes for the voltmeter. Getting those holes in the correct spot was the hardest part.

I was asked to attach a sunproo voltmeter to a 1973 bezel for a friend. So this is what I came up with.
The import part is to remove any chance I'd shorts. So I modified the back of the bezel with my trusty dremel tool so the post would fit without touching the bezel.
I used vinyl washers on the front and back of the bezel.
The 1 1/2 inch gage fits in great.
I used black electrical tape to cover the ampmeter print.
