Yeah, attachments seldom get clicked by me, I want to see it on the main page, not have another window open that then need closed. PITA factor...

The gauges are not the stock F600 but aftermatket which means you probably had to open the holes up a little. And the engine is running but you just started it and it is already almost out of gas plus the truck only has 98 miles and you alreasy lost the wiper switch and drilled another hole in the dash. ????

Nope, I used photobucket for the first picture... I only put it both ways as there are some that can not see anything that is from Photobucket (probably has to do with work firewalls)

There are some that can not see anything that is from Photobucket (probably has to do with work firewalls) so that is why I did the local attachment. The local attachments are local to the Fordification web site. I posted the same picture both ways so they could see and play along... Look closer but willowbilly is getting warm. :thup:

Willowbilly, You are very close but 90% of the gauges are the stock gauges and I didn't have to modify the holes any. (Look closer here :wink: )
On the other things you pointed out the wiper switch got moved to the F600 location, I did reset the odometer when I originally installed this IC, the other hole in the dash was PO work :doh: that I will fix someday... Yeah, it's an FE its always out of gas :lol:

Here is a picture of it when I installed it the first time.

And here is one that shows where the wiper switch went to, it was also upgraded to Intermittent wipers at the time :D

Alt gauge is different, and in the second pic, the truck is running. Look at the oil pressure & fuel gauge (dude, you need to get some gas) :wink:

The ALT gauge has been switched to a VOLTAGE gauge.
